Zvi Hauser: Israel not to blame for failure of freeze talks

Following the announcement that Washington is abandoning its request that Israel renew a settlement freeze and will begin looking for a new way to advance peace talks, Cabinet secretary Zvi Hauser said Wednesday that Israel was not to blame for the failure of the talks.
In an interview with Israel Radio, Hauser said that the Palestinians need to understand that they cannot impose preconditions for negotiations.
He said everyone understands that the current route had run its course, and the countries will continue to search for another route leading to an agreement.
