Erekat wants Palestinian state to counter e. J'lem plan

By JPOST.COM STAFF
The international community should counter Israel's plan for the construction of 1,300 new housing units in east Jerusalem by recognizing a Palestinian state, senior Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat was quoted as saying Tuesday.
"Israeli unilateralism is a call for immediate international recognition of the Palestinian state," he said, according to a Reuters report.
Erekat's comments came as both EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton and US President Barack Obama expressed concern over the plan.
