Summary
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Sunday Israel's move to proceed with an East Jerusalem settlement project by razing a derelict hotel undermined the peace effort. This disturbing development undermines peace efforts to achieve the two-state solution, Clinton said in a statement in Abu Dhabi, where she is on an official visit. In particular, this move contradicts the logic of a reasonable and necessary agreement between the parties on the status of Jerusalem.
