Abbas has promised to release from prison inmates HAMASOvtsev.

President of the Palestinian Authority, Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas has promised to release to freedom in Palestinian jails members opposed to the Fatah radical Islamic movement Hamas, the Israeli Ha'aretz.

This should be a gesture of goodwill the eve of talks between Fatah and Hamas for reconciliation and a coalition of national unity. Negotiations should take place in the twentieth of June.

Previous attempts of reconciliation, in which the mediators were Arab states such as Yemen and more recently Egypt ended inconclusively. Recall that before the next round of talks in Cairo in February 2009, Mahmoud Abbas, has promised to release from prison, about 80 members of Hamas.

The tension between Fatah and Hamas have worsened during the summer of 2007, when Hamas in an armed coup drove all the representatives of Fatah from the Gaza Strip and set his or her sole rule. In the Palestinian Authority had actual diarchy. For its part, the international community recognizes the sole legitimate representative of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' PA.
