国际英语新闻：Israeli PM warns Palestinians over "unilateral action" threats

In 1993, the Oslo peace deal between the PLO and Israel enabled the creation of the PNA and established a nominal autonomy.

Today, the PNA doesn't see Israel committed to the two principles of the agreement: mutual and common cooperation when implementing the deals on the ground. Therefore, the PNA doesn't have a legal and political mandate in the territories it rules, Majdalani said.

However, the Israeli prime minister tried to allay cabinet security concerns over any potential Israeli handovers to the Palestinians, saying "we will, of course, uphold the vital interests of the State of Israel, with security first and foremost. We expect the Palestinians to honor their commitment to hold direct negotiations."

He said "peace will only be achieved through direct negotiations and I hope that we will fully return to this track soon."
