Speaking to public radio on Wednesday, veteran Likud MK Tzahi Hanegbi responded to Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' declaration he will work with any Israeli government that accepts the principle of a two-state solution.
If the Palestinian Authority "changed its attitude" it would find "Likud's hand held out to resume dialogue," Hanegbi said during the interview.
The former minister also denied that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu had ruled out the creation of a Palestinian state.
