Ya'alon: 'The burden of proof is on the Palestinians'

Deputy Prime Minister Moshe Ya'alon said on Tuesday that "we fulfilled our word by ending the freeze."
"I embrace the prime minister for standing by a strong policy," Ya'alon said, adding "The burden of proof that they want to and are ready to continue direct negotiations is on the Palestinians. Our principles are clear and defined - recognition of Israel as the national home of the Jewish people, ending the conflict and the demands, and guarding Israel's security interests."
