Ramallah - A senior Palestinian official said Monday that the latest US documents released on WikiLeaks are proof of the transparency of the Palestinian Authority (PA).
The the confidential papers said Israel tried to coordinate with the PA regarding its December 2008 war on the Gaza Strip, telling the Palestinians to be ready to take over Gaza after Israel defeats Hamas. The Palestinians rejected the Israeli offer, said the documents.
"We are a transparent authority with nothing to hide," chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said in statements to the media in Ramallah.
President Mahmoud Abbas, he said, urged Hamas to sign a paper put forward by Egypt in order to avert the Israeli war, which, he said, Abbas was strongly against.
