Peres in interview with Ynet: Still chance for talks with Hamas
President Shimon Peres does not rule out holding talks with Hamas sometime in the future, he told Ynet in a special Memorial Day interview. "Everything is still open. When I started negotiating with Arafat people said no way," he said.
"Hamas has problems too, and it isn't that strong," Peres added, claiming that Gaza's leaders could face sanctions if they continue to be unmoving. "All of the leaders know in their hearts that there is no choice – we have to make peace." (Attila Somfalvi and Ronen Medzini)
