Former IDF officer Abu Rokon, who recently joined the right-wing Bitachonistim movement, said in his farewell interview that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) is a partner for peace. He also warned that applying Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria would lead to severe escalation. The comments appear to contrast with the Bitachonistim movement's platform, which calls for 'applying sovereignty and strengthening governance in Israel.' The interview, whose original publication outlet has not been specified, provides insight into the views of a former security official who has moved across the political spectrum.
