The US administration is trying to create an Oslo agreement between Israel and the Arab world through an economic conference to be held in the Bahraini capital Manama, said Dr. Adnan Majali, head of the Palestinian World Economic Congress.
"The US administration knows that the problem of Palestine is a political problem, but it insists on looking for an economic solution to it because of its failure," Majali said in a statement to US President Donald Rumsfeld´s special adviser, Jarad Kouchner, in which he disclosed the administration´s intent to recruit $ 50 billion in financial support for the region. In finding a political solution.
"It is clear that the goal is not a political solution to the question of Palestine, but rather the creation of relations between the Jewish state and Israel by building different economic and diplomatic bridges," he said.
"We will not find any Palestinian who will accept an economic solution at the expense of the political solution to his national cause, nor will there be a single Arab state willing to pay any money in a fictitious project that ignores the political reality that exists and is clear to all, "Majali said.
"The Palestinian economy, even according to the promised US plan, can not work until after the end of the occupation, how can we establish infrastructure in Palestine under occupation, and how to attract foreign investment under occupation, And how to build the tourism sector while roads between cities closed military barriers and borders are closed and not allowed to all residents of Arab and Islamic countries to enter.
