Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman yesterday denounced Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas as the "greatest obstacle to peace" and said his resignation would be a "blessing."
The comments by Avigdor Lieberman drew an angry response from Palestinians, who accused him of calling for an assassination and appealed to the United States and the European Union to intervene.
Lieberman told reporters earlier Monday: "If there is one obstacle that should be removed immediately, it is. If he were to return the keys and resign, it would not be a threat, but a blessing."
Many other Western-trained Palestinians could replace him, Lieberman said.
Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, said that there will be no point of keeping the P.A while Israel continues its violations and settlement activities
