(White House) - White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan said Thursday: "First of all, we are pleased to hear Prime Minister Sharon's strong reiteration of his support for the road map as the way forward. He, Prime Minister Sharon, said it is 'the best way to achieve true peace.' We are also pleased, as well, that he repeated what he said at Aqaba - 'It is not in our interest to govern you. We would like you to govern yourselves in your own country.'...The plan the administration supports is the road map, because that is the way to get to the President's vision that he outlined on June 24, 2002, here in the Rose Garden, of two states living side by side in peace and security."
