Division cannot be easily resolved

Egyptian political expert Abeer Thabet said that the Palestinian division cannot be easily ended, because all sectors of our Palestinian society have been affected by it in all aspects and levels, stressing the need for giving the priority to the national interest at the expense of factional ones.
She added that there are foreign powers that work to undermine the Palestinian reconciliation during the current period, saying that there is need for unifying the Palestinian people under the umbrella of Palestinian Liberation Organization.
She continued that the main issues are have not been fully resolved, because there is one point in which the interlocutors are deliberating how to enable the Palestinian National Accord Government to extend its control over all the joints in the Gaza Strip.
She stressed that the Palestinian people are eager for peace, stability, freedom and unity. He added that they are struggling to end the humanitarian and political crises and end the unjust siege imposed on the Gaza Strip. She added that there is a siege from another side in the occupied West Bank behind roadblocks and in daily incursions and incessant arrests.
She added that it is important to have a comprehensive geographical unit in all the Palestinian territories, saying that the Palestinian people is the real guarantee of unity through the support of the Palestinian reconciliation government, and the embodiment of the parameters of national cohesion.
She praised the role performed by the Egyptian government to achieve the Palestinian reconciliation during the latest period, saying that Hamas is keen to achieve reconciliation with Fatah as soon as possible to serve the interests of the Palestinian people.
Palestinian national unity government will appoint the security forces and will manage the crossing once it is established, saying that the position of the dismissed leader of the Fatah movement, Mohammed Dahlan in the Gaza Strip, will be determined by the government.
She added, “Frankly, we felt that there was no political decision to achieve reconciliation from Fatah. Now if there is political will from power, many problems will be resolved soon, including the sanctions imposed on Gaza through non-payment of funds for health, education and energy sectors.”
