“Unless the Arab states give Israel formal recognition, within secure, recognised and mutually agreed boundaries, as a permanent feature of the geography and politics of the Middle East. But if Israel is to obtain this recognition, she must, in a settlement, put an end to the territorial occupation which she has maintained since the war of 1967; the nine members of the European Community have declared that this is an essential element in a settlement. On behalf of the British Government I underline that need today.” IfsNeedsGivingWarEndsStatesGovernmentTodayCommunityMiddleMembersEssentialsElementsIsraelBritishEastBoundariesNineSecureRecognitionPermanentFeaturesOccupationMiddle EastFormalBehalfGeographySettlementTerritorialBritish Government Author:Anthony Crosland
