Comprehensive elections necessary to rebuild Palestinian political system: Hamas

“Hamas welcomes the holding of elections for the legislative council, the presidency and the National Council and will be working for their success,” said Khalil al-Hayya, a member of Hamas’s political bureau

Hawzah News Agency (Occupied Palestine) -  A high-ranking Hamas official has reiterated the resistance movement’s firm position on the necessity of holding comprehensive elections in order to rebuild the Palestinian political system.

“Hamas welcomes the holding of elections for the legislative council, the presidency and the National Council and will be working for their success,” said Khalil al-Hayya, a member of Hamas’s political bureau, in a press conference on Thursday.

“The national vision for the Palestinian reconciliation is an important springboard for us to reunite the Palestinian people and achieve the national unity based on partnership,” he further said.

The senior Hamas official’s remarks came two days after President Mahmoud Abbas delegated the head of the Central Elections Commission Hanna Naser to hold meetings with Palestinian factions to prepare for parliamentary elections.

However, the factions, including Hamas and the Islamic Jihad, demand the holding of comprehensive general elections for the Palestinian Legislative Council, the Palestinian Authority, led by Abbas, and the National Council.
