France blames Israel for violence
Israel must change its diplomatic stance before negotiations on a Saudi peace initiative can begin, French foreign minister Hubert Vedrine says. In an interview published in an Israeli daily, Vedrine floats his own peace plan, based on the recognition of a Palestinian state and elections in Palestinian territories. Vedrine tells the Haaretz that many world leaders are opposed to the Israeli government's "policy of oppression" and suggests it is the cause of the increase in attacks.
