We feel that these actions of Israel, as a minimum, do not help calm down the situation, restore order in the PNA territories or end the Palestinian-Israeli confrontation. It is hardly logical to demand of the Palestinian leadership an effective struggle against anti-Israeli actions and a reliable prevention of rocket attacks and simultaneously engage in destroying the power structures of the PNA. <\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:right;padding-top:10px;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">\nMay 24, 2007<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:left;padding-top:8px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-size:8pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"color:#0000ff;font-size:8pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/counter.rambler.ru\/top100\/\" style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;padding-top:6px;font-size:6pt;font-family:Arial, san-serif;\"><\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION INFORMATION AND PRESS DEPARTMENT _______________________________ 32\/34 Smolenskaya-Sennaya pl., 119200, Moscow G-200; tel.: (495) 244 4119, fax: 244 4112 e-mail: dip@mid.ru,&nbsp;web-address: www.mid.ru Unofficial translation from Russian Mikhail Kamynin, the Spokesman of Russia&#39;s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Answers a Question from RIA Novosti Regarding Arrests of Palestinian National Authority <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/document\/auto-insert-205540\/\"> [&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"country":[1074],"document-category":[2433,1329,4371,2769],"document-source":[],"committee-meeting":[],"document-subject":[6156,1857,2285],"entity":[1985],"document-language":[6542,6541,6539,6538],"class_list":["post-205540","document","type-document","status-publish","hentry","country-russian-federation","document-category-french-text","document-category-press-release","document-category-russian-text","document-category-spanish-text","document-subject-agenda-item","document-subject-incidents","document-subject-prisoners-and-detainees","entity-state","document-language-english","document-language-french","document-language-russian","document-language-spanish"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document\/205540","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/document"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document\/205540\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=205540"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=205540"},{"taxonomy":"document-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-category?post=205540"},{"taxonomy":"document-source","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-source?post=205540"},{"taxonomy":"committee-meeting","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/committee-meeting?post=205540"},{"taxonomy":"document-subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-subject?post=205540"},{"taxonomy":"entity","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/entity?post=205540"},{"taxonomy":"document-language","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-language?post=205540"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
