for the palestinians, giving them an opportunity to have what i said was called a political horizon. is one is a future in which the gazans, the palestinians, are not in gaza, well, the negotiations are going to be very difficult indeed. to depopulate gaza, our technology editor zoe

of the european union overall. as environmentally friendly. with ordinary voters. and so they think that this meeting this weekend is going to boost their support. and presumably they think they can learn lessons and on a basic level, by gathering like this, they�* re getting publicity.
