His Majesty King Abdullah said that the Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmad Qurei' is trying to reach a ground for solving the security issues and achieving a ceasefire with the Israelis.

In an interview with American "PBS", the King affirmed that what the Palestinian prime minister needs is to be met by the Israelis in the middle of the road by stopping the assassinations, lightening the burdens of the searching points and the suffering of the Palestinians.

Answering a question on America's interference and its ability to convince Israel to move towards negotiations, King Abdullah said that the US can do that but the difference stays on the security issue and unless this issue is solved the American's can't do anything in this regard.

Answering a question on the ability of the officials at the Palestinian authority on stopping attacks against Israeli civilians, the king said that there will always be extremists on both sides and cannot be controlled.

The king expressed belief that the Palestinian prime minister is working hard to achieve a cease fire.

His Majesty affirmed that the main cause now is to enhance the position of the Palestinian prime minister to enable him to fulfill his duties.

Answering a question on the Geneva Convention, the King said that anything related to the principles of the peace process and the roadmap must be a positive subject. The king added that he personally thinks that the Geneva convention is a very important document and represents a very positive step adding that "we don't want this document to bring the roadmap out of its track".

Regarding the Iraqi issue, King Abdullah said:" we have always believed that the future of Iraq must be for the Iraqis" pointing that the situation in Iraq is miserable at the time for most people.

The king added that the only way to solve this problem is that the Iraqis should be back to their streets adding:" the faster we replace the police and the army with Iraqi police and army to shoulder the responsibility instead of the foreign forces the more the security situation will get better".
