The Palestinian National Authority (PNA) rejected Monday Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's recent statement that settlement activities would be resumed after ten months, Xinhua repoted.
"His words prove that he is not serious about freezing the settlements and reaching a permanent solution to end the Israeli- Palestinian conflicts," said Nabil Abu Rdeineh, spokesman of the Palestinian presidency.
He also said the settlement activities are illegal and contradict with the international law.
Netanyahu proposed two weeks ago a temporary freeze of settlement activities only in the West Bank as a condition to resume the peace talks with the Palestinians.
The PNA rejected Netanyahu's offer and insisted that settlement activities should be completely halted not only in the West Bank but also in East Jerusalem.
