Those who planned the attack in Tel Aviv, which we condemn in the strongest possible terms, had the objective of stopping and undermining the peace process, and they should not win. We should continue the process of negotiation.
I urge the Israelis to understand that we need to continue talking. I also urge the good office of President Bush to exert every possible effort to resume the contacts.
Aid from Germany, the European Union and other donor countries must continue to finance infrastructure projects in all fields.
