We say to Mr. Trump that we hope he will not move the embassy
from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Because Jerusalem from the Israeli
point of view is a united city and this is not correct and illegal.
Therefore, moving the embassy to any place will be a step ahead
of anything that may happen in the future and will damage
the peace process. Also, we hope to stop this
(referring to Trump's comments) and to start negotiations
depending on the international legitimacy.
The founding of a Palestinian state will flood us with refugees.
We will not assist it. We will move forward
already in the current (parliament) session to apply sovereignty on
Maale Adumim, and we will move on from there.
It is reassuring that there are positive signs in Syria crisis.
At least everyone now agrees that a political-diplomatic
reconciliation through all-national dialogue based on U.N.
resolution has no alternatives. As you know an inter-Syrian meeting
between the Syrian government delegation and armed opposition
will take place next week in Astana. We view this meeting as an important
input into work on parameters of integral political reconciliation
in the Syrian Arab Republic which will continue at larger events
in Geneva in the beginning of February.
