Saudi Foreign Minister misleading public opinion: Hamas

Ghaza: Condemning recent remarks made by Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir, Palestinian resistance movement Hamas said that the Saudi foreign minister seeks to mislead the public opinion and distort the image of the legitimate Palestinian resistance.

It must be noted that the Saudi Foreign Minister described the Gaza-based movement as “extremist”.

Hamas said the remarks made by Adel al-Jubeir would encourage the Israeli regime to commit further crimes against the Palestinian people.

Jubeir’s claims are inconsistent with the Muslim world’s stance towards the Palestinian cause and its support for the Palestinian people.

Addressing the European Parliament in Brussels on Friday, al-Jubair claimed that Qatar had stopped its support for the Palestinian movement and this has “facilitated the handover” of government offices in Gaza to the Ramallah-based Palestinian Authority.
