It relies heavily on foreign aid and has not held presidential or legislative elections since 2006.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>The authority was ousted from Gaza after Hamas won parliamentary elections in 2006 and subsequently seized control of the territory in a violent takeover.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>Abbas was elected president in 2005 for what was intended to be a four-year term.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>Israel captured the West Bank and east Jerusalem during the 1967 war.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/>Palestinians seek both territories as part of a future independent state, while Palestinians and much of the international community consider Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank illegal and an obstacle to establishing a viable and contiguous Palestinian state.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a
