<p>At this highly sensitive time in the region, there is an urgent need to restart
the peace process between Israelis and Palestinians. We regularly press both parties
to resume direct negotiations towards a two-state solution. I discussed the issue
of the Middle East Peace Process with the Israeli Ambassador to the UK on 11 October
and the Palestinian Foreign Minister on 24 November. We continue to believe the best
way to achieve this is through substantive peace talks between the parties leading
to a two-state solution based on well-known parameters. These parameters are 1967
borders with agreed land swaps, Jerusalem as the shared capital of both states, and
a just, fair, agreed and realistic settlement for refugees.</p>
