At a press conference with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon on Thursday, US Secretary of State John Kerry declared 'Palestine' a '
country.'
And finally, the granddaddy of them all, I guess, the question of the
possibility of peace between Palestinians and Israelis. Both leaders in
the region, Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Abbas, have made a
courageous decision to try to return to final status talks. And it’s my
hope that that will be able to happen as procedures are put in place by
both countries in order to empower that.
So, Mr. Secretary-General, it’s a privilege to be here in this
institution which dedicates itself day-to-day to ending violence, to
enforcing people’s prospects for peace, and to trying to live by a code
of universal values that I think all of us are proud to be affiliated
with. So thank you for your leadership, and thank you for welcoming me
here today. Thank you. Thank you, sir.
What could go wrong?
