DOHA January 17. 2024 (Saba) - Head of the Islamic Resistance Movement abroad (Hamas) Khaled Mashal affirmed on Wednesday that Hamas and the Palestinian people reject the term of the two-state solution.
He stressed that the Palestinian people demand liberation, freedom from occupation, independence, and the establishment of a Palestinian state.
Mashal said in Ammar podcast said “The West is talking that the October 7 battle opened a horizon for the issue of political vision, and from here they are returning to their old commodity, which is the two-state solution,” explaining that Hamas does not accept the term two-state solution, which is rejected, because it means that we have a promised state at the time. What is required is that we recognize the legitimacy of the other state, which is the Zionist entity, and this is categorically rejected.”
Mashal confirmed that Hamas and the Palestinian people will not accept the final solution which indicated 1967 borders, explaining 21% is practically a fifth of Palestine "so this cannot be accepted.”
Mishal stressed that the Palestinian consensus, or quasi-Palestinian consensus, is supposed to be from the sea to the river, explaining that it must be from the Ras Naqoura area to the Umm Rashrash area or the Gulf of Aqaba, and this is our right.
He explained that "Hamas and the Palestinian forces from an early time, as we made clear in our political document in 2017, that in order to form the basis for a joint meeting and a joint national program with the Palestinian forces and the Arab position, we accept a state on the 1967 borders with al-Quds as its capital with complete independence and with the right of return without recognizing the legitimacy of the Zionist entity."
Mashal pointed out "This position comes to facilitate Palestinian and Arab consensus at this stage, but without giving up any part of our right or our land and without recognizing the usurping entity."
