Comments to Future TV following meeting with Prime Minister Rafic Hariri (unofficial transcript)

SG: I've had a very good discussion with the Prime Minister, who's a good friend and we've been working very well together. And I'm very happy to be here in Beirut to attend this meeting. And I think it is a historic opportunity and I'm very pleased that Crown Prince Abdullah put forward his proposal. And I believe his speech this morning would have an echo in Israel because he really spoke of peace in the region and he came in the name of peace. And I hope at the end of the day the conference would embrace the proposal that he's put on the table because it would be a major contribution for the peace process and we would then try to build on that momentum. Thank you. *****
