President Assad of Syria said that he is ready to hold peace talks with Israel. Israel’s spokesmen referred to Egypt’s historic peace treaty with Israel in 1978, said: “Why can’t Assad do what others have done.
Peace talks between these two countries broke six years ago when Syria demanded Israel to hand over the Golan Heights, which it has occupied since the 1967 war. On Monday President Assad told that both the countries should accept the existing borders and live peacefully side by side.
