Bildt adds that an act of terrorism directed at innocent civilians can lead to further escalation of violence.
He maintains that in this sensitive situation both sides remain determined to negotiate – despite the new violence, the situation in Gaza, Israeli settlements and terrorist attacks.

He adds that he would also refuse to meet any Israelis opposed to a peace settlement but instead only support peace efforts.
