"Additionally, the meetings with Fatah reflect the urgent need to enhance partnership in re-structuring the Palestinian institutions inside of Palestine and in the diaspora under the Palestinian Liberation Organization, the Palestinian Authority, and the Joint National Leadership of Popular Resistance."

"Finally, we hail the enormous efforts exerted by the Hamas and Fatah delegation in this regard."
