Annan says fears collapse of Palestinian Authority

BRUSSELS, Jan 28 (Reuters) - The Palestinian Authority could collapse unless there is urgent extra international aid to relieve the plight of the Palestinian people, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said on Wednesday.

"We share our concern about the economic, social and humanitarian situation of the Palestinians," Annan said after talks with Irish Foreign Minister Brian Cowen, whose country holds the rotating European Union presidency.

"I appealed for additional support for them, because I am afraid that if the situation continues, we will see real despair and perhaps even partial collapse of the Palestinian Authority," Annan told reporters.
