Palestinian groups meet


Fatah in power in the West Bank and Hamas who govern in Gaza have been at loggerheads相持不下, sometimes violently劇烈地, for almost five years.
Mahmoud Abbas and Khaled Meshaal met for the first time in six months to try and re-ignite重新點燃了 a unity deal統一的協議 that never got off the ground不遵守承諾, 說好的沒實現 when it was proposed back in May.
There was a lot of positive talk. President Abbas said there were no longer any differences between the two sides. Mr Meshaal said a new page in partnership had been turned.
But many will perceive察覺,感覺 these talks as having ended in failure. The substance實質內容 Palestinians will have been looking for was not there. There was no news on the possible makeup構成 of a new interim臨時 unity government to work towards elections next year.
That issue seems to remain a major sticking point主要癥結. They did agree to hold more talks in a month's time but many Palestinians, who've been waiting for political unity for years, will not be holding their breath發生期待中的事情.
