United States invites Syria to Peace Party

November 5th, 2007 · No Comments

The United States announced on Sunday that Syria is welcome to participate in the peace conference in Annapolis, Maryland, but only if it agrees to focus on Palestinian-Israeli issues, not on the Golan Heights.  Israel, Palestine and the U.S. are planning to meet to re-open the “roadmap to peace”  between the two nations.

Syria and Israel have remained officially at war since Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria in the Six-Day War of 1967. Syria has said it will not participate in any peace talks unless the Golan Heights is on the agenda.
