President Mubarak,Calls on Israel to stop hindering peace process
The Egyptian President has appealed to the Israeli government to stop hindering the Middle East Process and resume negotiations with the Palestinians, Syria, and Lebanon immediately. Hosni Mubarak said signed agreements and international resolutions should be honoured and called for the full implementation of the principle of land-for-peace.
His comments come on the day Israel and the Palestinians were due to sign a framework agreement. However, Israel believes that peace talks with Syria could resume within a matter of weeks. Talks have stalled over the handover of land and there is no indication that the two sides are anywhere near signing.
