Defense Minister Ehud Barak on Thursday said that the possibility of progress in peace negotiations will be difficult because of the political situation in the government. "We must find a way to move forward and avoid being being isolated. I am not sure that this government can move forward", he said during an interview with Channel 10. Barak said that the government structure is not suitable for progress in the negotiations: "Until now I could not change the situation from within. I see this as the reason to stay in government."
