RAMALLAH, Feb 28 (JMCC) - Hamas on Saturday slammed a document prepared by a senior Palestinian negotiator which outlines a grim situation due to the suspension of peace talks with Israel.

The document reflects the Palestinian negotiator's frustration, said Ismail Radwan, a Hamas spokesman.

The suspension of peace talks is not in favor of the Palestinian people, said the document prepared by chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat.

As the Palestinian Authority had desperately negotiated for years to have an independent Palestinian statehood against Israel, the interruption of the talks would serve Israel's idea that one state with two nationalities is better than the two-state solution, Erekat said.

Radwan said that Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas and his party Fateh lack the legitimacy to make policy changes for the Palestinian people.
