The Makkah agreement has laid the foundations for a power-sharing process that will produce a functioning government capable of attending to our people?s needs. It will also pave the way for rebuilding the PLO to include all the factions and become the legitimate representative of all Palestinian people.

The partnership born out of the Makkah meeting is possible because of the consensus among the Palestinians that their primary objective is to win their freedom, and that their struggle should be solely against occupation.

It is now up to the international community to respect this accord and the will of the Palestinian people.
