| Description | WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Israel favors giving international humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people so long as it does not go directly to a Hamas-led government, Israel's ambassador to the United States said on Monday.
In an interview with Reuters, Israeli Ambassador Daniel Ayalon took a conciliatory approach on humanitarian assistance and stressed his country did not want to see the Palestinian people suffer after the militant group Hamas' surprise win in a January 25 parliamentary election.
"It's against our nature, our morals to really hold a population responsible. We certainly do not want to see any starving people or a humanitarian disaster," said Ayalon. |
