Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will make an assessment of the effect of Israel’s Regional Tracks for Peace project on the viability of a future Palestinian state.

The changing regional context, the Arab Peace Initiative, and converging Arab and Israeli interests presents an opening to develop Arab-Israeli relations and create the conditions for serious Israeli-Palestinian talks to resume
