Israel is no longer a people that dwells alone, and has to join the global journey toward peace, reconciliation and international cooperation.
I believe that it is my responsibility as the prime minister of Israel to do whatever can be done to exploit the unique opportunities that lie ahead of us to move towards peace. Not everything can be done by one act.

We must think differently, look at things in a different way. Peace requires a world of new concepts, new definitions.
