Israel's decision to limit settlement in construction in the West Bank "helps move forward" efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Wednesday.
"We believe that through good-faith negotiations the parties can mutually agree on an outcome which ends the conflict and reconciles the Palestinian goal of an independent and viable state based on the 1967 lines, with agreed swaps, and the Israeli goal of a Jewish state with secure and recognized borders," Clinton said in a statement.
