resume peace talks with Syria from the point at which they broke off three
years ago.
In a joint peace conference with Israeli Foreign Minister Ariel Sharon,
Ivanov stressed that Russia's position is to resume talks between Syria and

Egypt, and the Palestinian self-rule areas.
Upon his arrival in Israel on Thursday, Ivanov toured on board a helicopter
in the airspace of the occupied West Bank. He was accompanied by Sharon.
An Israeli official said through his tour of the West Bank, Sharon intended
to acquaint the Russian minister with what Israel calls the "security zones"
which it believes it has to keep in the context of a final agreement with
the Palestinians.
Sharon and Prime Minister Netanyahu believe almost half of the territories
of the occupied West Bank should remain under the Israeli control. Ivanov is
scheduled to meet today with Netanyahu before he heads for Ramallah to meet
with Palestinian President Yasser Arafat.
