CAIRO, July 7 (Xinhua) -- Israeli President Shimon Peres said on Tuesday that the country's discussion about two-state solution came to a conclusion and Israel would support the plan.
"Two states for two people, a state for the Israeli Jewish people beside a state for the Palestinian Arab people," Peres said in a joint press conference with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Cairo. As for the Israeli plans in the future, Peres said Israel will make more efforts for peace process.
"We have no intention to seize more Palestinian land in the future, Israel has no intention to control the Arab people, or to add more settlements," he said, adding "We don't have to waste this chance to achieve peace in Middle East".
The United States has been pushing Israel to freeze building all settlement, while the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel has the right to build within existing settlements to allow for what is so called natural growth.
