CAIRO Cheap Loris Karius Jersey , Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- The recent reconciliation between Palestinian rival groups Fatah and Hamas is not just a blessing for the Palestinians, but also positive news for Egypt which brokered the deal between the two major Palestinian factions.
After in-depth negotiations hosted by the Egyptian Intelligence in Cairo, Hamas ruling the Gaza Strip and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party eventually reached a reconciliation pact on Sunday to heal their decade-long rift.
Moreover, they agreed to form a unity government and prepare for the general parliamentary and presidential elections.
Surprisingly, Hamas also promised to dissolve the administrative committee it formed in March to manage daily affairs in Gaza Cheap Lazar Markovic Jersey , which Hamas has been ruling since it routed Abbas' military forces in the summer of 2007.
The formation of the committee, which was considered by Abbas a shadow government, pushed the Palestinian president to introduce unprecedented tight measures against the coastal enclave, including a 30 percent slash in staff salaries, refusing to pay for electricity services and sending 7 Cheap Kevin Stewart Jersey ,000 employees to early retirement.
Observers believe the reconciliation between Fatah and Hamas is also something in favor of Egypt.
""Egypt is keen to have a strong and legitimate authority in Gaza to secure its borders in Sinai, a hotbed for terrorists who killed hundreds of Egyptian army and security men,"" Professor Abdel Mohdy Motawe, a Cairo-based Palestinian political analyst, told Xinhua.
Egypt has on many occasions accused Hamas of aiding terrorists linked to the Islamic State (IS) in Sinai Cheap Jordan Henderson Jersey , which borders the Gaza Strip, a charge that Hamas has always denied.
Unifying the Palestinians once again will help Egypt regain its regional weight as the leading Arab country, Motawe explained.
Cairo has been working hard to renew the stalled peace talks between Palestinians and Israelis
