<p>We have long believed that direct negotiations towards a two state-solution need
to be on the basis of clear, internationally agreed, parameters. We therefore welcomed
the idea of an United Nations Security Council Resolution on the Middle East Peace
Process which sets these out. We supported much of the content of the resolution.
However, there were important issues which required proper negotiation, including
the inclusion of arbitrary deadlines. Regretfully, this did not happen, so we abstained.</p>
