Abstract
The movement toward peace in the Middle East has never been at a more critical crossroads than it is today, and . . . efforts to contribute to a peaceful settlement have consequently never been more needed. For the first time since Israel invaded and captured the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, Gaza and the Golan Heights, eighteen years ago, there exists an unprecedented opportunity for the parties involved to reactivate the peace process, based on the return of territory in exchange for peace. This opportunity should not be missed. It is an opportunity that I know will never come again, if we fail now. In February, we in Jordan, with our Palestinian brethren structured an initiative that represents an important breakthrough in the Arab search for peace. It is an initiative that holds enormous promise if it is received with the trust and good will with which it has been formulated and offered. I refer to the Jordanian-Palestinian accord concluded in February between the Government of Jordan and the Palestine Liberation Organization, the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people and recognized by the majority of nations.
