In an interview on Israel Channel 10, reporter Raviv Drucker asked Abbas: "In the map that Olmert presented you, Israel would annex 6.3% [of the West Bank] and compensate the Palestinians with 5.8% [taken from pre-1967 Israel]. What did you propose in return?" "I did not agree," Abbas replied. "I rejected it out of hand." 2015-11-18 00:00:00Full Article
