Q:<\/span> Sir, with Palestine effectively split in two, how do you see the way forward on this new timetable that has now been set in place? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

SG:<\/span> There was a very historic agreement to launch negotiations, to address all the pending issues and agree on a peace treaty by the end of 2008. There is a follow-up mechanism; we are going to have an important donor conference in Paris on December 17th, and the Russian Government offered their willingness to host a follow-up conference sometime early next year. With all this, I hope we will be able to facilitate and urge, and implementation is most important thing. What is the important thing is that we do tomorrow what we say today. <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Q:<\/span> What about Gaza, sir? He asked about Gaza. What about the situation in Gaza? How are you going to solve this problem, sir? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

SG:<\/span> This is a source of great concern for me. During the Quartet meeting, I had conveyed a fact sheet on the humanitarian situation in Gaza. As the Secretary-General of the United Nations, I have broad humanitarian responsibilities. I have urged again when I met with Prime Minister [Ehud] Olmert that he should take immediate action to ease access and movement, look at the very difficult situation in Gaza, look at the humanitarian situation. I am really working very hard to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n
