\n

35.\t<\/span>Mr. DANIELI<\/u> (Israel) said that Israel had, as it had throughout the years, joined the consensus on draft resolution A\/C.1\/48\/L.35 on the establishment of a nuclear-weapon-free zone in the region of the Middle East.  However, it felt that the nuclear issue should be dealt with in the full context of the peace process, as well as of all regional security problems.  Israel supported the principle of non-proliferation, but felt that it could be achieved only by establishing a mutually verifiable nuclear-weapon-free zone in the Middle East.  A step-by-step approach must be taken, beginning with confidence- and security-building measures in a climate of peace, leading to actual peace.  In due course, the process would be complemented by conventional and non-conventional arms control, with priority assigned to systems that experience had proven to be destructive and destabilizing.  The primacy of the peace process must be given due priority, and negotiations on all security issues had to take place within the framework of the peace process.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

36.\t<\/span>The interrelationship between the peace process and the nuclear issue had been supported in the report of the Secretary-General (A\/48\/399), in which he had stated:  "a nuclear-weapon-free zone cannot be conceived of or implemented in a political vacuum, separate from the process of mutual reconciliation".  Regional and extraregional bodies should consider that principle as a prerequisite for serious and meaningful dialogue.  The tabling of a resolution on Israeli nuclear armament indicated that a change of heart was needed on the part of some of the actual or potential participants in the peace process.<\/p><\/div>\n
