"Mr President, the release last week of the Israeli soldier, Gilad Shalit, by Hamas, in exchange for the release of over 1 000 Palestinian detainees, has rightly given rise to feelings of joy and optimism on both sides and elsewhere. However, if this optimism is to translate into a force for good, specific action is needed, mainly on the part of the stronger party, Israel, which is in a position to take specific steps in that direction. It could gradually reverse the isolation of Gaza, gradually release all Palestinian detainees and freeze the settlements, while Hamas, for its part, could stop launching rockets at Israel. This is the only way the aforementioned exchange of detainees will help to start negotiations, in the hope that they will lead to a solution. Otherwise, Shalit’s release, in exchange for the release of a large number of Palestinian detainees, might encourage the abduction of more Israeli soldiers, with a view to exchanging them for Palestinians still being held in gaols, which none of us wants."@en1
