Defense Minister Ehud Barak said Tuesday that both his and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's trip to Washington had been a good one. "Our visit here was a very important one. We are leaving no stone unturned in our efforts to restart the negotiations," Barak said.
"This visit once again highlighted the contributions of President Obama to help bring peace with the Palestinians, along with security for Israel," Barak said. "In my visit to Pentagon and in our meetings at the White House, we once again observed the serious attention President Obama pays to Israel's security needs," he added.
