Nabil Sha'ath Arafat Quotations

President Arafat has always wanted to go back to the peace process on the right basis. He was very clear. ... and said (the) Israeli attack has to stop first. The deployment of heavy forces and tanks and the disproportionate use of force has to end, and only this will be able to calm down the situation and bring back the peace process.

We and the Americans have said we wanted a breakthrough in London, but they don't want a breakthrough. They want to obstruct, procrastinate and play for time. Arafat is frustrated.
