Palestine national unity gov will abide by peace agreement: Abbas

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said the new national unity government rejects violence and will abide by peace talks with Israel.
“I am the president of the national unity government and I will live up to the peace agreements,” he said. “If Israel releases the remaining prisoners that were agreed upon and stops the Jewish settlement construction I will be willing to restart the peace talks.”
Israel left the talks following the agreement between Fatah and Hamas over forming the national unity government of Palestine.
