Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said in a statement to the Saturday that “what is needed is to completely stop negotiations rather than suspending them or subordinating them to the US stance.”
He explained that "giving the US administration another opportunity would be useless and could only encourage them to exert more pressure on the Palestinian and Arab side as they continue with their indefinite military and political support to Israeli occupation."
Abu Zuhri urged the Palestinians to adopt a strategy based on resistance and adherence to inalienable Palestinian rights and principles.
