European Union to Israel: "Start Negotiations on Jerusalem"
European Union ended the debate in Brussels on the Swedish proposal for recognition of East Jerusalem as the capital of the Palestinian people without a clear decision on the issue, calling for Israel and the Palestinians to engage in dialogue about the issue, and through negotiations reach an agreement for recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of two nations.
The Heads of State are prepared to approve the resolution soon.
The decision reduces the level of concern. Beforehand, President Shimon Peres called on the EU not to 'replace' the UN and not to intervene in this matter at all. Peres said that the move "will not work" if you do not discuss the subject with the relevant parties.
