PM Barak: Israel will continue to work towards reduction of violence and implementation of Sharm understandings, and will leave door open to possibility of resuming talks
(Communicated by the Prime Minister's Media Adviser)
At the weekly Cabinet meeting today (Sunday), December 10, 2000, Prime Minister
and Defense Minister Ehud Barak praised the IDF and the security
services for their continuous activity against those elements which are
trying to attack us. The Prime Minister said that it is too early to
know how the decision on early elections will affect relations with the
Palestinians but added that Israel will continue to act to reduce
violence, implement the Sharm understandings and leave the door open to
the possibility of a resumption of the negotiations.
Prime Minister Barak said that - by virtue of his being Acting Education
Minister - he has ordered a re-examination of the issue of the
transportation of teachers in Judea and Samaria in light of the recent
terrorist attacks; in this context, he has directed that the necessary
bullet-proofing be carried out. He said that the government is working
in coordination with the relevant authorities regarding the gradual
installation of bullet-proofing in Gilo.
