US envoy says Hamas must renounce arms to take part in PA
US President Donald Trump’s special Mideast envoy
Jerusalem - Emirates Voice
US President Donald Trump’s special Mideast envoy said on Thursday that if Hamas wants to play a role in any Palestinian government it must “renounce violence and commit to peaceful negotiations with Israel.”
Jason Greenblatt’s statement was the first American comment on the advancing reconciliation efforts between the Palestinian Fatah and Hamas factions.
Greenblatt said Hamas must meet the international demands to recognize Israel and accept previous agreements with it. He says “it must accept these basic requirements” to take part in government. Hamas has always refused similar demands in the past, AP reported.
Under Egyptian auspices, the Palestinian factions last week announced a preliminary agreement and have formed committees to sort out unresolved issues, most notably who will control Hamas’ massive weapons arsenal. Talks continue with Fatah.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led
