Netanyahu Rejects any Palestinian Ultimatum through UN

Local Editor

"Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday rejected any Palestinian attempt to set an ultimatum for the Zionist entity to end part of occupation to their lands through a UN Security Council resolution.

"We will not accept attempts to impose unilateral measures upon us by a set date, at a time when radical Islam is spreading throughout the world," he said, quoted by army radio, before heading for Rome to meet US Secretary of State John Kerry.

The Palestinians on Sunday announced they would present a draft resolution to the Security Council on Wednesday setting a two-year deadline for "Israel" to withdraw from occupied Palestinian territories in Gaza and the West Bank.

Kerry and Netanyahu were to meet later Monday to discuss the vote, with the US expected to veto the draft.

Netanyahu on Sunday already ruled out the possibility of a withdrawal from the occupied West Bank and Occupied east al-Quds.

Previous rounds of US- brokered talks have failed, the most recent ending in April amid bitter recriminations from both sides.
