Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri, in a brief statement released on Thursday, slammed the Saudi prince’s remarks during an interview with Saudi-owned al-Arabiya television news network aired earlier this week as “regrettable.”
Abu Zuhri underlined that such comments “only serve the Occupation (Israeli) regime.”
Separately, Saeb Erekat, Secretary General of the Executive Committee of the PLO, said in a post published on his official Twitter page that “Whoever among Arabs that wants to present their credentials to Washington or elsewhere, or wants to pave the way for normalization with Israel, can do so without defaming Palestinian people and their legendary struggle.”
