EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell upon arrival at the Foreign Affairs Council meeting on Monday:‘’We will discuss how to proceed, how to support the Palestinians on this issue. We have been pushing them a lot for holding elections and unhappily the fact that Israel is not allowing them to do elections in East Jerusalem has made them decide not to hold this election.
There is widespread belief among the Palestinians and the international community that the issue of voting for the Palestinians in East Jerusalem was only a pretext used by Abbas to avoid elections which would endanger his legitimacy already eroded by internal divisions within Fatah and the probable win of Hamas, the Islamist movement ruling in the Gaza Strip.
