<p style="font-size:10pt;">GAZA, (PIC)&#8211; Hamas and Fatah  Movements intend in the next few days to hold a meeting in Damascus to  discuss contentious issues regarding the national reconciliation,  especially the rebuilding of the Palestinian security apparatuses in the  West Bank and the Gaza Strip.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In this context, specialists in the  Palestinian political affairs opined in separate press statements to the  Palestinian information center (PIC) that achieving unity depends on  good faith on both sides, but any reconciliation agreement could be hard  to implement in the West Bank, for there are some officials whose own  interests come into conflict with the reconciliation.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">&#8220;There are no guarantees from any party to  implement the reconciliation agreement, except their good intentions,  so there is a fear that Fatah authority could use its engagement in the  Palestinian reconciliation talks as a maneuver or [political] leverage  in reaction to the failure of the direct negotiations between Ramallah  and the Zionist entity,&#8221; said political analyst Hasan Abdo.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Asked about the possibility of  implementing the agreement in the West Bank, Abdo said, &#8220;It is clear  that Fatah leaders in the West Bank have a different agenda with regard  to the security apparatuses, and we hope these apparatuses will not  disrupt the atmosphere of reconciliation, which is supported by the  Palestinian people from all strata, through their persistence in  arresting and hunting supporters and leaders of Islamic movements.&#8221;</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">For his part, political analyst Hani Habib  stated the real breakthrough in the reconciliation is to find a way to  have the agreement implemented in the West Bank.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">&#8220;I do not think this matter will be easy,  for there are influential parties in the West Bank, whose interests go  against the achievement of a genuine and serious reconciliation,&#8221; Habib  underlined.</p>
