Statement by the Press Secretary/Director-General for Press and Public Relations, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on the Decision of the Israeli Cabinet concerning the Implementation of the Wye River Agreement

December 3, 1998

The Government of Japan is concerned about the decision made by the Israeli cabinet on December 2nd to attach conditions to Israel's implementation of the Wye River Agreement at a time when international expectations of progress in the Middle East peace process have been heightened by this agreement. The Government of Japan urges the two parties concerned to refrain from statements and actions that could have a negative effect on the climate of future peace negotiations and to implement the Wye River Agreement faithfully.
