Aid freeze on Hamas squeezes students

This story is incredulous and will only serve to increase violence in the region..

AMMAN, 21 May 2006 (IRIN) - The US and EU decision not to provide financial aid to Hamas-led government is having a damaging effect on thousands of Palestinian students in Jordan, according to Palestinian diplomats in Amman.

Donors say they will only revive direct aid to the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) if Hamas renounces violence, recognises the state of Israel and signs up to earlier peace agreements. The financial crisis has depleted the PNA resources, leaving it unable to pay salaries to its employees. As a result, parents of about 6,000 Palestinian students studying in Jordan were unable to pay their children's tuition fees.
