Foreign Ministry summons Egyptian envoy

Ynet has learned on Friday that the Egyptian Ambassador to Israel Yasser Reda, was summoned to a meeting at the Foreign Ministry where he was told that "under no circumstances would the peace treaty be reopened for negotiation".

During the meeting, senior Foreign Ministry officials expressed their irritation over statements made by senior officials in the Egyptian government in connection with the possibility of re-opening the Camp David peace treaty to negotiation. The Israeli officials made it clear that the option was not on the cards. On Thursday Egyptian Prime Minister Essam Sharaf said the treaty needed to be reopened. (Ronen Medzini)
