At the end of the EU foreign ministers meeting in Stockholm, EU Foreign Policy Chief Javier Solana calls for a new dynamic in the middle east peace process. Javier Solana, EU High Representative: "we have discussed the Middle East at length, at a very important junction. It would be our wish, the wish shared by many people, the United States, the Palestinians, I think the Israelis, and without any doubt the majority of Arab countries, to have a round general assembly in New York, a new dynamic being created, in order to achieve peace. As Carl Bildt has said, I have been in the region, I have been to all the major players, and I think it is possible, I am not saying it will take place. It may fail. But it is possible that something around that time at the end of this month, the beginning of next month, we may have a new dynamic being created with one objective. The objective is to have a Palestinian State on the boarders of 1967, that will live in peace with an Israeli State."
