that netanyahu is a recent visit there so obama backtracking on what he what he said and essentially becoming a puppet of netanyahu you could see the there was not a lot of chemistry in this meeting but i think not too much would be to this kind of music would you say that the relationship between the united states and israel is colder than it's ever been before i don't think so without the united states we would be in a much more difficult position not only because of the veto but because of the support that we get from them. i think the relationship it's not only on the political level it's also cultural ideological. they know that we are so far the only or the most important democracy in the middle east do you not think a bomber has lost credibility in the arab world there was so much hope when he came to power and he certainly seems to have remained a very close friend of israel as you say i think. for the palestinians put
8:32 am
a lot of hope. in the obama administration to be the honest broker in the i think they still see this way just this morning we were announced this. the obama administration made it very clear that they are going to veto in the security council in the quest to become a full members of the unit in the nation so you know the trust that. is at the moment in trying to achieve peace in the region in they know that is trying to perceive himself as an honest broker is there the possibility that the united states could veto the establishment of a palestinian state and still the general assembly would recognize that. mission of the palestinian state was already announced the nineteen eighty eight. and nothing different so this can happen again and again in the it's. not gain anything to the
8:33 am
palestinians a what can what it can achieve is the continuation of the delegitimization of the state of israel and this is something that i think can be avoided only through bilateral talks do you have faith that netanyahu is serious about peace i have faith in him because for the last two years when i served my country is the israeli ambassador to the united nations a saw i watch very clearly not only what he said in the belly landing in first speech which was two states for two countries but also the way that he acted in freezing for ten months building in the settlements which no current no government did ever before why then do we hear so much about settlement building taking place despite the construction freeze that there was not the continuation of the building in those ten months but in those ten months what happened was that the palestinians they don't move in spite of the fact the the free there was
8:34 am
a freeze which never happened before there were no buildings except maybe some place for expansion and still nothing happened is so it's not us to blame it's the palestinians who did not move for those a whole year and then no peace talks took place in the i also think the americans also did their part in making the palestinians sit on their hands. abu mazin said it in so many words he said the obama put us on a tree he went down from the settlements you know the only resistance in resisting on me is stopping or freezing the building and i was left on the tree this is what i wasn't himself said so with the phrase did not help in the last two years or even more since gus liberation we did not have any peace talks do you think of the do lieberman in the country's foreign minister is good for israel. he was
8:35 am
appointed by. a government that was elected in the aquatic action i know that many people think the he's not the right person to represent israel in the world it what takes place now but this is the decision that was taken by the leadership by an attorney i was the prime minister i'm not going to comment on it the u.s. president barack obama has publicly committed the united states to peace based on the one nine hundred sixty seven borders what is the benefit to him of sameness in public you know that the obama administration unlike former administration is very much engaging with the world with the muslim world which is the african and say i could see the way that the obama as a. representative of the susan rice the way the chief acts united nations the way that she acts the way that she embraces the way that
8:36 am
she engaged in they really want to be an honest broker in the middle east and not to be perceived as they were for so many years being one sided in supporting on israel i think this is his idea in a new way this is what former administration said as well but he made it very very clear that this would be the basis for the coming peace what is will be secure within pre nine hundred sixty seven borders i think this is for our leaders in the defense minister to decide i think we will get the government is that we made in the israeli army is very powerful and can put. in any borders you have said that israel's international status is at an all time low do you think that this is because of its settlement building he said. looking objectively i don't think it's us to blame i think the palestinians are getting now. israel and they have
8:37 am
a strategy of to legitimize ing the state of israel they failed in the walls they failed in the boy caught a cultural boy called they failed trying. to tell all in the streets and the buses all over israel now they have a diplomatic comparing against israel and i think they succeeded in showing israel as the occupier. is the powerful power over in the west bank and especially in gaza and the people in the suffering of the people there which i do not want to belittle but still this is part of the strategy in the i think this is why we are being there legitimized in the hope and they know that only the peace talks once they will be started will bring us back to the right track in the keep this stop this kind of tenet of the fiction of the day should the
8:38 am
palestinians unilaterally declare a palestinian state what will israel's reaction be i don't know but you know some people here say that. we can also take unilateral steps. like the disengagement i know that all kinds of unilateral on our side or on the palestinian side going to harm and to be an obstacle to the peace in the region when i don't know how we will react but i still hope that the palestinian will understand that this kind of unilateral declaration will bring them no will this is not the way to achieve what everybody wants which is peace with least some kind of security in the. suffering. clashes that we saw recently along the northern israeli border do you think that this could be a precursor to what we're going to see in september you know it really.
8:39 am
felt to me. here's someone going to put a sting in their diplomats and politicians and they say that he's afraid of the conflict then. they'll be they don't and that's one of the clear ration always nothing would happen and the young students who are the palestinians still schoolbooks look around and see what happens in the winter and they may rise and there will be. so this is something that i think also should be taken into account and they should be prevented do you think there's a possibility of an israeli living on wall i hope that the army and there will be friends in the intelligence people will know how to avoid it because war is something that nobody. each side of the border really wants. or we'd be getting anything out of it professor thank you very much for joining us here on r.t. .
