Clinton and Netanyahu Talk Security and Peace

(CNN) Thursday's meeting between Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the resumption of peace talks was followed by a joint statement that said their discussion included "a friendly and productive exchange of views on both sides." "Secretary Clinton reiterated the United States' unshakable commitment to Israel's security and to peace in the region." Clinton added that "the United States believes that through good-faith negotiations, the parties can mutually agree on an outcome which ends the conflict and reconciles the Palestinian goal of an independent and viable state, based on the 1967 lines, with agreed swaps, and the Israeli goal of a Jewish state with secure and recognized borders that reflect subsequent developments and meet Israeli security requirements." The discussions "focused on creating the conditions for the resumption of direct negotiations aimed at producing a two-state solution." For his part, Netanyahu said he would like to broaden the talks to include "many other Arab countries. It is our common goal. We are quite serious about doing it and we want to get on with it."
