PA Ties Security Reform to Political Progress
(Ha'aretz) Arnon Regular - PA Chairman Abbas told the Palestinian parliament Tuesday that the Palestinians would only carry out security reforms if there is progress toward establishing a Palestinian state. "The security effort required of us will be partial and ineffective without political progress and negotiations to carry out the road map and begin the talks on the final status settlement," he said. His statement deviated from his former position that the PA would effect the internal reforms regardless of the political process.
