A peace process is an exercise whereby groups or countries with conflicting interests seek to avoid further confrontation through negotiations
It is widely expected that the talks on Jerusalem will be among the most complicated and difficult of all the issues to be dealt with in the "final status" negotiations. These negotiations will focus on the toughest issues, including the fate of Arab East Jerusalem that is claimed by sides, the question of Jewish settlers and the return of Palestinian refugees. (The Asian Age, 1996, p. 4)
The late Sheikh Zayed Ben Sultan of the UAE said "there would be no peace in the region of West Asia without the return of Arab East Jerusalem" (Jordan Times, 1997, p. 12) At the same time, the Israeli Interior Minister Eli Euissa said, "We will fight with all our power in the war over Jerusalem, whether through this law or through the building and planning law or another law" (Gulf News, 1997, p. 17) The subject of Jerusalem will dominate the deliberations, especially as Israel has not taken any measures to halt the construction of Jewish settlements on Arab lands (Jordan Times, 1997, p. 3)
Summary

The peace process has reached the difficult stage where diplomacy is confronted with obstinate and mutually irreconcilable positions of the parties These issues are of peace and security-related confidence-building measures and a framework of bilateral and multilateral cooperation and of more basic issues like sovereignty, territorial integrity and the legal status of the population involved. (Israeli-PLO "Agreement on the Gaza Strip and the Jericho Area, 1994) In the case of Israel and Jordan, this procedure is already a reality formalized by the peace treaty of 26 October 1994, (Jordan-Israel Peace: the Terms of the Peace Treaty, 1994) which calls for cooperation between the two countries against security threats of any kind, such as terrorism, subversion, or cross-boundary infiltration It envisages a conference on security and cooperation in the region to make the region free from weapons of mass destruction. Establishing such a plateau and making it stable ought to be the purpose of the stage of diplomacy
