The US envoy to Syria on Thursday stated its commitment to producing a peace deal between the Syrian government and Israel. "We conveyed President Obama's sincere commitment to pursue Arab-Israeli peace on all tracks, including on the Syrian-Israeli track," senior State Department official Jeffrey Feltman said after meeting Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moualem in the Syrian capital.

A peace deal between the two countries has been a main objective for Syria in the warming of relations with the U.S.
