“We are planning a nationally-focused bilateral framework for all the Palestinian people,” he pointed out, adding that the potential outcomes would be “national”.
Fatah and Hamas’ recent agreement, Rajoub continued, would turn into a ‘national consensus.’ “The PA will not set a date for elections until all factions agree on a national action,” he explained.
