WASHINGTON – On the eve of his visit to the Middle East, US special envoy George Mitchell threatened that his country would freeze its aid to Israel if the Jewish state failed to advance peace talks with the Palestinians and a two-state solution.
Mitchell clarified in an interview to the PBS network that the United States would use incentives or sanctions against both sides.
George Mitchell says he plans to return to region in next few days, hopes to make progress on political, security and economic tracks of peace process
According to American law, Mitchell said, the US can freeze its support for aid to Israel. He added that all options must remain open and that the sides must be convinced about what their important interests are.
I wonder what kind of sanctions he can use against the Palestinian.
Anyone thinks that could happen?
