Foreign Minister Lieberman says Israel + PA should consider transferring control of Gaza to UN. (Haaretz).
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Monday that Israel and the Palestinian Authority should consider transferring control of Gaza to the UN.
"Everyone is asking, what happens after the operation ends? Suppose Israel defeats Hamas. There are a few options. International control of Gaza, by the UN, should certainly be considered."
Lieberman cited the British Mandate over Palestine and the UN mandates in East Timor and Kosovo as examples.
"We saw it works quite well there," he said. "… It requires an agreement between us and the Palestinian Authority. It doesn't require consent from the UN, just from the parties involved – Israel and the PA."(Jonathan Lis)
