By JPOST.COM STAFF
A meeting between Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and US Middle East envoy George Mitchell on Tuesday was positive and the two discussed the diplomatic process, as well as the issue of settlements in the West Bank, the Prime Minister's Office said. Following their meeting, Mitchell told reporters that a "comprehensive peace in the Middle East would include peace between Israel and the Palestinians, as well as peace between Israel and Lebanon, and Syria and Israel."
In addition, he continued, the peace deal would include "full normalization between Israel and all of its neighbors in the region." "That is our objective," Mitchell said, "and to that we have committed ourselves fully." In his remarks, Netanyahu said: "I think we're making progress toward achieving an understanding that would enable us to continue, and in fact complete, a peace process that would be established between us and our Palestinian neighbors and ultimately the entire region."
