“Israel” Ready to Negotiate the Lebanese Gov’t on Certain Conditions

Local Editor

In a surprising move, "Israel" said Wednesday it was ready to negotiate on certain conditions with the new Lebanese government.
A Foreign Zionist Ministry statement said "Israel" hoped the formation of the new government in Beirut would bring more stability and the rule of law and order inside Lebanon and along its borders.

The enemy's statement expected "the new government to respect all United Nations resolutions and called on it to solve all outstanding issues through peace talks. ""Israel" calls on the Lebanese government to solve all the outstanding issues that stand between the two countries through negotiations and mutual respect," said the statement.

Foreign Ministry Spokesman Yigal Palmor clarified that the statement was not an immediate call for negotiations.
But "if the new government recognized Israel, Israel would talk to it". Palmor claimed
"The way to solve everything, one day, is through negotiations," he told the German Press-Agency DPA.

"We call on the Lebanese government to adopt the negotiating approach. If they agree to negotiate, than yes, of course we would. If the other side agrees to recognize Israel and to negotiate with Israel and to solve problems through negotiations, then yes, we will negotiate with them," he said.
