| PA considering canceling PM position |
| 2004-04-20 |
| This probably fails to meet the Rantburg criteria for ’news’. More like formalizing a de facto situation. The Palestinian Authority is considering canceling the position of Prime Minister, leaving the leadership entirely in the hands of the PA Chairman Yasser Arafat, the London-based al-Hayat newspaper reported Tuesdays. Officials in the PA claim that the position on Prime Minister was imposed on the authority by the United States, in an effort to reduce the power that lies in the hands of Arafat. The partner for negotiations is Arafat, the Palestinians say, as he is the Palestinians’ elected president |
