Abbas: Palestinian recognition not a condition
The article focused on the stance of Mansour Abbas, the head of the United Arab List, regarding recognition of the State of Palestine in the context of negotiations to form the upcoming Israeli government. Abbas clarified that the list's recognition of the Palestinian state would not be a condition for participating in the coalition government, although they support the political position of recognition. He also emphasized that Abbas aims to maintain a pro-Palestinian stance without imposing that as a condition on potential partners, explaining that his list seeks to achieve genuine peace and end the conflict through initiatives that grant rights to both sides. Opposing Israeli figures, such as Gadi Eizenkot, responded by asserting that a Palestinian state will never be established. Prime Minister Netanyahu commented that Israel will not allow a Palestinian state controlled by Iran. These developments indicate Abbas's efforts to strengthen his party's role in Israeli politics, including negotiations to include another political figure, Yoav Segalovitch, in a potential electoral alliance. This move aims to shift the balance of power and expand cooperation with parties opposing Netanyahu.
