Costa said, in an exclusive statement to Al-Qahera News TV Channel, on Monday evening that the Sharm El Sheikh Summit achieved an important step towards peace in Gaza, affirming that the European Council seeks cooperation to enhance governance by the Palestinian state, considering this one of the basic objectives to support the Palestinian people and the Palestinian National Authority.
