Ramallah, 2 Jumadal Awwal 1436/21 February 2015 (MINA) –  The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) said signing the gas agreement with Israel by the Palestinian Authority (PA) earlier this year is humiliating and shameful, especially at a time when the Israeli occupation is seizing the Palestinian tax revenues and at a time when calls are rising for the boycott of Israeli products.

In a statement on Thursday (20/2), the PFLP demanded the immediate cancellation of the gas agreement signed between the PA and Israel, Palestinian Information Center (PIC) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.

The demand was made not only because the agreement was signed without the consensus of the Palestinian people and its representatives of the factions constituting the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), but also because it guarantees the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, including Jerusalem, for the next 20 years, according to the PFLP.

The PFLP charged those who signed the agreement of approving the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories for at least twenty years to come.
