[Institute for Contemporary Affairs-Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs] Alan Baker - Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad published a plan in August 2009 to unilaterally declare statehood after a two-year state-building process. However, any unilateral action that undermines the existing Oslo interim framework could jeopardize the peace process and remove the basis for the existence of the Palestinian Authority. Were the Fayyad plan to be adapted and integrated within a resumed negotiating process, on the basis of the extensive infrastructure that already exists in the Oslo Accords, then this plan could serve as a constructive starting point for any new round of negotiations. The writer is former Legal Adviser to Israel's Foreign Ministry and former Ambassador of Israel to Canada. 2009-11-16 06:00:00Full Article
