Abbas Says There's ‘Complete Stalemate’ in Peace Process

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas renewed his warning on Tuesday of taking the necessary legal measures to protect the interests of the Palestinian people and put an end to the Israeli occupation’s crimes, which have reached an unacceptable level. “The current situation cannot be tolerated in light of the absence of a political horizon and international protection for the Palestinian people,” he said during a press conference with Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades at the presidential palace in Nicosia.
