Gabbay on peace: Time to stop the 'blame game'

Zionist Union chairman Avi Gabbay said on Saturday that a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA) would benefit Israel’s security, and called for an end to the “blame game” between the sides.

“A long-term peace agreement is our guarantee for Israel's security. This is the future of our children and grandchildren, but unfortunately, in recent years we have witnessed a game of accusations instead of a diplomatic process. It's time to stop it. As prime minister, I will insist on ending the incitement in the Palestinian Authority and will work for the Israeli interest in an attempt to create renewed hope for the region,” Gabbay said at the Saban Forum in Washington.
