"Having overcome its initial shock at the outcome of the Palestinian elections, Europe must now acknowledge the legality of the poll and the legitimacy of the new government and, indeed, welcome the high turnout of Palestinian citizens in the poll. Only by showing complete trust and continuing to cooperate can we demand the necessary commitment from the new government to carry out the roadmap. We must, of course, be more watchful, precisely because of the serious tensions that have arisen in recent years between the party now in power and so-called Western society, but I am sure that clenching our fists is not the way to eliminate that kind of friction. On the contrary, Hamas needs to be given a chance to show that it can respect the commitment made more than once by President Abbas himself to stick to the schedule, to respect existing agreements and obligations and to pursue a negotiated settlement of the conflict with Israel. Cutting off funding to the Palestinian Authority is therefore not the solution. What is needed – and we must not be moved on this – is for the monitoring system to be enhanced, including through greater international cooperation, so as to ensure that the resources are used exclusively for the economic, political and social development of Palestinian society, and not for the destruction of our own."@en1
