A Palestinian official on Sunday called for international guarantees if peace talks with Israel renewed and led to a solution.

"Any solution we reach with the Israeli side must be under international supervision and monitoring," Yasser Abed Rabbo, a member of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) executive committee told reporters.

"Experiences proved that Israel violates the deals it brokers with us," he added, referring to Israel's "obligations" in the US -backed Road Map peace plan which, in one of the central calls, urge Israel to stop settlement expansions in occupied Palestinian territories.

According to Abed Rabbo, international guarantees "would enable the international community to intervene on the level of the UN Security Council and oblige Israel to respect the deals."

The Palestinian National Authority (PNA) raises the guarantees issue in talks when President Mahmoud Abbas meets with leaders, Abed Rabbo says.

Peace talks between Israel and the PNA stopped when Israel launched Gaza military operation in December 2008. The PNA demands Israel stop settlement activity in the West Bank and East Jerusalem which was occupied in 1967.
