Short Summary

Israel has agreed to accept the United Nations' Resolution 242 as a basis for negotiations with neighbouring countries.
Description

Israel has agreed to accept the United Nations' Resolution 242 as a basis for negotiations with neighbouring countries. The Resolution calls for an Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank of the River Jordan and Gaza. A major factor in the tailing-off of recent peace negotiations has been the Israeli refusal to accept that the withdrawal demand in Resolution 242 applied to the West Bank and Gaza.

SYNOPSIS: To gauge reaction to the new Israeli stance, Mayor Elias Frieje of Bethlehem was asked if he felt peace was closer.
