Mousa Abu Marzook , Vice-president of Hamas Politburo, reiterated the call to expedite procedures needed to form a national unity government comprised of the  Palestinian factions referring to what had been agreed during the National Council meeting. 

In an interview with Al Araby TV,  on Monday , Abu Marzook  stated that the national framework is unified  on the issue of resisting the occupation. He added, "We are in unison regarding many texts which call for resisting  Occupation and  criminalize security collaboration between the PNA and the Israeli Occupation “

Resistance Program

Marzook added that there is a comprehensive national agreement on resistance with all its forms and components. He pointed out that accusing resistance of being ' nonsense' was merely a political debate.

He further added:  ' No future lies ahead for  occupation. Our people will not give up a single meter of their land'

Abu Marzook criticized the Palestinian Authority strategy which  adheres to negotiations program. He wondered, "Why should  obligations of the PLO be obstacles  which only the Palestinians are required fulfill while occupation does not oblige to any of them?

Abu Marzook pointed out that it’s shocking to see that  the US Congress has condemned the Security Council resolution on concerning the  halting settlements. He noted that the Cabinet appointed by US President Trump is hostile to Palestinian people.

Relation with Egypt

Regarding the relationship with Egypt, Abu Marzook affirmed the keenness  of the movement to strengthen its relations with Egypt. He added ' we are interested in removing all former problems; something which is in the  interest of both nations.'

Abu Marzook stressed that Hamas is serious about opening up to all forces in the region because the political compass of the parties should be toward Palestine and Jerusalem.

He added " We  cannot alienate  any one from  playing their role in serving the Palestinian cause"
