Saeb Erakat Process Quotations

I don't think Sharon had intended by doing this tonight to give the peace process any chance at all. Nothing justifies the targeting and the bombardment of this residential area.

We have a U.S. administration that's seeking to see the process as crisis management here and there. They're not telling Mr. Netanyahu to stop it.

Those who planned the attack in Tel Aviv, which we condemn in the strongest possible terms, had the objective of stopping and undermining the peace process, and they should not win. We should continue the process of negotiation.

If Mr. Sharon is in the government, we all know the peace process will be over,

I am not going to raise any expectations at this stage. This is going to be a difficult process of rebuilding the trust and confidence between Palestinians and Israelis,

The least important issue today is my resignation. The real issue is the lives of Palestinians and Israelis, breaking the vicious cycle and reviving the peace process and putting it back on track.
