The Palestinian Authority, marking the 22nd anniversary of its declaration of independence in 1988, stated in a statement on Monday that the PA Arabs and their leaders are determined to continue the struggle to do a democratic Palestinian state.

The PLO's Executive Commission also set as a condition for a return to negotiations with Israel, the complete freezing of construction in Judea and Samaria as well as East Jerusalem.
