Resume negotiations at the point reached in December 2008

Palestinian Negotiator Saeb Erekat on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict (on Amanpour, November 2, 2009).

"Olmert gave a map. Abu Mazen gave a map. And for the first time, we had a very close map. We're talking about the high 90s, in terms of percentages of the West Bank and the swaps of land. We agreed to go to Ashant (ph) and on January 3, 2009, to lock in this agreement with Secretary Rice at that time. What happened, Olmert decided to go to Gaza, attack Gaza, and then he had the scandal at home."
