Ghazi Hamad told Xinhua on telephone that the Palestinian government are ready to talk without preconditions with Quartet that comprises the United States, the European Union, Russia and the United Nations.

After three months of freezing aid to the Palestinian National Authority (PNA), the EU has recently agreed on resuming humanitarian aid to the Palestinians, bypassing the Hamas-led government.

The Quartet supported the EU decision.

Hamas welcomed the EU supportive stance which will contribute in ending the suffering of the Palestinians people, said Hamad, wishing the aid could have been sent directly to the government that is the address of all Palestinians.

The EU and other minor donors suspended funding the PNA to force the new Hamas-led Palestinian government to meet Quartet's demands of renouncing violence, recognizing Israel and peace accords.

Those conditions imposed by the Quartet create a crisis and the Palestinians don't consider them as fair conditions, said Hamad.

He wondered why doesn't the Quartet impose preconditions against Israel and demand it stop building West Bank fence and expanding settlements there.
