French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault has warned that if upcoming French efforts to jumpstart the Israeli-Palestinian peace process did not bear fruit, the region was "heading for disaster."
In an interview with the French paper Le Monde a day ahead of a Paris summit on restarting peace talks, Ayrault said that disagreements with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,"can be overcome" and that at the moment no such negotiations exist anyway.
"If we cannot break the current deadlock, we are heading for disaster," Ayrault said.
"A new environment must be created on an international scale to tell the two parties: we are not going to negotiate on their behalf, as that is their responsibility as Israelis and Palestinians, but we do want to help them."
