 (AKI) - Well placed Palestinian sources have told Adnkronos International (AKI) that Hamas' exiled political leader, Khaled Mashaal has asked the leader of Greece's Socialists, Georgios Papandreou, to organise a "secret" meeting with Israeli deputy premier Shimon Peres.
| But don't tell nobody, okay? It's a secret. |
Officials of the Hamas-led Palestinian Authority government have refused to comment on the report.
Mashaal, who is based in Damascus, Syria, together with the rest of his Islamist group, officially rejects any negotiations with Israel whose right to exist is not recognised by Hamas. Papandreou, a former Greek foreign minister is leader of the Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) and is president of the Socialist International. |
