At the top of these tasks: broad reforms, unifying institutions between the governorates of the country, maximizing humanitarian relief efforts in the Gaza Strip, assisting displaced persons returning to their areas, providing shelter, establishing infrastructure and basic services, restoring the educational process, health services, water, electricity, etc., in order to restore Reconstruction and economic revival throughout the country.

One of the tasks of this government is also to prepare for holding legislative and presidential elections in all governorates of the country, especially East Jerusalem.

sisters and brothers,

While we emphasize the government's broad tasks and powers, and the full powers it assumes in accordance with the law, we point out that the Palestine Liberation Organization, the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, remains the body responsible for Palestinian political affairs, negotiations, and reconciliation, and in this regard, we work with Arab and international parties. And in international forums, around the clock, in order to stop the aggression against our people in the Gaza Strip, complete withdrawal of the occupation forces from the Gaza Strip, prevent displacement, and stop all criminal practices and attacks by the occupation forces and terrorist settlers in the West Bank, including Jerusalem.

Our political goal, which we seek and work to achieve, remains achieving freedom, independence, and salvation from occupation, and we are working with the concerned Arab and international parties to ensure that the State of Palestine obtains full membership in the United Nations, by decision of the Security Council, and to achieve more recognition of the State of Palestine.

We will also continue to work to unify our land and people and achieve Palestinian national reconciliation, which we hope will happen as quickly as possible, and on the basis of political programs and the international commitments of the Palestine Liberation Organization, the sole legitimate representative of our Palestinian people, and all relevant points, in order to face the coming challenges and serve our people. Achieving independence and sovereignty over the land of the State of Palestine, with East Jerusalem as its capital, along the 1967 lines.

May God grant you success in serving the sons and daughters of your Palestinian people and raising the status of its national institutions on the path to freedom, independence and sovereignty.

Glory and eternity to our righteous martyrs, recovery to our brave wounded, and freedom to our heroic prisoners.
