| PM Sharon: Arafat Will Not Be Buried in Jerusalem |
| 2004-10-31 |
| "As long as I'm here - and I'm not planning to leave any time soon - Arafat will not be buried in Jerusalem." So said Prime Minister Ariel Sharon at today's Cabinet meeting. In response to a question by Justice Minister Yosef Lapid, Sharon then stated clearly that this applies only if Arafat does not die. Prime Minister Sharon also said that if Arafat ceases to be in control of the Palestinian Authority, "this might very well be a good opportunity to coordinate and negotiate with whatever leadership arises after him. Only if they change their policies, however, and prove it with facts on the ground, will there be room for us to change our policy. The test will be in actions, not declarations." |
