Speaking from Iran, Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Moallem spoke slowly, out of character, articulating each word, stating “if Israel is willing to pull back to the pre-June 4th [1967] boundaries, and is serious about peace, the Palestinian track does not have to be a hindrance and there is no reason we cannot move forward.”
Following reports in the Syrian media over recent days, it is becoming increasingly apparent that a deal between Damascus and Jerusalem is in the works, one that involves major Israeli land concessions.
The reports have appeared on the Syrian semi-government controlled Shams Press website as well as in the al-Watan newspaper.
