Livni says Lebanon settlement depends on soldiers' return
Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said Monday that a resolution of the conflict in Lebanon must mean the release of the two Israeli soldiers kidnapped by Hizbullah. The July 12 kidnapping "was the start of this entire matter," Livni said in Berlin after meeting with German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
"From our side, so long as this issue with the two soldiers is not solved, the whole thing is of little significance. Our sovereignty has been infringed and if this resolution does not make that good, then we still have this problem." (AP)
