"Впервые за много месяцев, может быть, лет, ситуация значительно улучшилась; кроме того, начались контакты между сторонами", - заявил верховный представитель ЕС по вопросам общей внешней политики и политики безопасности Хавьер Солана. Однако перспектива возобновления мирных палестино-израильских переговоров оказалась под угрозой. |
