Middle East peace plans at risk, warns Blair
Middle East envoy Tony Blair warned today that the peace process was in jeopardy and Israel must fully support the goal of living next to an independent Palestinian state.
He said a period of political inactivity caused by Israeli elections and the change of administration in Washington has set back progress. The hiatus coincided with the launch of Israel’s Gaza offensive in December to try to halt years of rocket fire at Israeli towns and cripple Hamas.
