 The Palestinian Authority said Wednesday it is prepared to exchange land for a lasting peace with Israel. "If the 1967 line has to be modified, it will be done under negotiations and in a reciprocal and fair way," Foreign Minister Nasser al-Qidwa said after talks with visiting Chilean Foreign Minister Ignacio Walker. The so-called Green Line marks the border between Israel and Palestinian territories, which Israeli troops have occupied since the 1967 war. "Our position is not new but illegal faits accomplis must not be imposed on the Palestinians by force," Qidwa added. But Qidwa also criticized the U.S. for insisting Israel can keep its largest population zones in the West Bank in any peace treaty with the Palestinians. |
