to make peace possible.

Iran and Israel's conflict is a new phenomenon,

only a few decades old

in a history of 2,500 years,

and precisely because its roots are geopolitical,

it means that solutions can be found,

compromises can be struck,

however difficult it yet may be.

After all, it was Yitzhak Rabin himself who said,

"You don't make peace with your friends.

You make it with your enemies."

Thank you.

(Applause)
