Deputy FM: Pressure will only cause peace to fail
None
Deputy Foreign Minister Daniel Ayalon said Wednesday, "Peace is our purifier and if the way to achieving the goal is creating a Palestinian state that it should be done. It should be done not with an artificial schedule and a forced agreement but based on trust."
He nevertheless noted, "Pressure won't help but will only cause peace to fail, we want peace but not on the expense of Israel's national interests." (Roni Sofer)
