Abbas to Israeli TV: PA on verge of collapse
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Palestinian Authority is on the verge of collapse, its president Mahmoud Abbas tells Israeli TV.
Speaking to Channel 2’s Uvda program, Abbas urges PM Netanyahu to meet with him at any point, and bemoans the Israeli military presence in the West Bank.
He calls for Israel to test the PA leadership by allowing him to “have authority over the territories.”
Abbas also claims that IDF troops even came up to his own front door. “There was almost an incident,” he says.
