Mahmoud Abbas.(interview)(Interview)
Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas came to Washington last week. Shortly before he met with President George W. Bush, Abbas, also known as Abu Mazen, spoke to NEWSWEEK's Lally Weymouth about the prospects for peace in the Middle East. Excerpts:
WEYMOUTH: Many Israelis are convinced that Palestinians do not accept Israel as a Jewish state. Would Israel retain its Jewish character in your vision of peace?
ABBAS: We have accepted Israel since 1988, when we said openly that we recognize U.N. Resolutions 242 and 338, and the right of the states in the region to live in peace and security.
Do you accept as written the so-called Roadmap to a Palestinian state?
We accepted the Roadmap in letter and spirit. And we didn't ask for any amendments.
How is your relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon? Do you trust him?
Lately, I met with him four times about the implementation of the Roadmap. I am waiting to see if he will deliver or not.
