"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, everyone is convinced that it is both opportune and necessary to create two states which can live together and in peace. The difference of opinion merely lies in understanding how to achieve these goals.
The Palestinian Authority’s intention of unilaterally applying to the United Nations for recognition as a state is an initiative which, in my opinion, could harm the peace process and spark off chain reactions in the Middle East. There is clearly an intention to isolate Israel in a diplomatic sense and to present it with a
right at a time when the peace agreements with Egypt are threatened by extremist positions and relations with Turkey are in crisis. The episode of the attack on the Israeli embassy in Cairo is the latest link in this chain.
The unilateral initiative by the Palestinians is in conflict with the principle shared by both parties, according to which the only solution to the conflict is bilateral negotiations between the parties. Unilateral recognition could therefore create further instability and make it even more difficult to build a democratic Palestinian state that could live in peace with Israel. I therefore hope that there will be a return to the key principles of the Oslo Accords, based on mutual recognition, peaceful coexistence, security and political rights."@en1
