PA Negotiator Backtracks on Unilateralism Plans
[Jerusalem Post] Tovah Lazaroff and Herb Keinon - The Palestinians will not unilaterally declare an independent state, but rather seek a UN Security Council resolution endorsing a two-state solution along the pre-1967 lines, PA negotiator Saeb Erekat said Tuesday. One senior Israeli government source said that Erekat's comments were an effort to backtrack on the plan to unilaterally declare a state, following the refusal of either the U.S. or the EU to support the idea.
