Shimon Peres told Obama Palestinians must have area of 1967 lines
Dr. Aaron Lerner Date: 10 June 2011

“Senior sources in the American Government told me that Obama and Peres
agreed in a closed meeting between the two that an agreement between Israel
and the Palestinians must be based on the principle of Israeli withdrawal to
the ’67 borders with border adjustments, or as Peres told Obama: the
Palestinians must receive territory equal in size to the ’67 borders. In
other words, any territory that Israel demands to annex from the [West] Bank
must be paid for by Israel with territory from the Negev. Along with this,
the American sources emphasized, Peres told Obama that he came to him after
a four hour conversation with Netanyahu. The prime minster, Peres made
clear, asked to advise the American president that he opposes the ’67 path,
and that if Obama declares it – Netanyahu will express his emphatic
opposition to the idea.”
