Ahlul Bayt News Agency ; Senior Hamas official Ismail Radwan said on the eve of a summit on Tuesday in Egypt that the latest round of US-backed peace talks were "humiliating and degrading." Radwan said his movement remained vehemently opposed to the talks being carried out by Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas. "He is not authorized to negotiate on behalf of the Palestinian people and any agreements produced by these negotiations will not be binding on our people," he told AFP, referring to Abbas. Abbas was to meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the Egyptian resort of Sharm El Sheikh on Tuesday.
