ISTANBUL (AA) - Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh agreed Thursday to speed up the establishment of a committee to discuss prospects for intra-Palestinian peace.
According to a statement by Hamas, Haniyeh spoke by phone with Abbas as part of the follow-up of the results of a meeting of Palestinian groups at the level of secretaries-general in Al-Alamein, Egypt on July 30.
During the meeting, it was agreed that the establishment of an intergroup follow-up committee which will discuss all relevant matters should be expedited.
On July 27, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan held a closed-door meeting with Abbas and Haniyeh.
Erdogan said that Türkiye would welcome Palestinians resolving their differences.
Ankara strongly supports a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict, including the establishment of a Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.
