Netanyahu calls for direct peace talks with Palestinians

Netanyahu says direct talks are the only way to reach a two-state deal, and calls on the Palestinians to recognize the Jewish state.

“I am ready to agree to talks immediately, without preconditions, anytime, anywhere,” he says.

But he accuses PA President Abbas of not being willing to do so.

“There is political will here in Jerusalem, but not political will there, in Ramallah,” he says, accusing Abbas of inculcating Palestinians with murderous hate for Israel.
