Rice: Syria Continuing to Play a Negative Role
[State Department] In an interview with Israel Channel 10 during a visit to Jerusalem, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Sunday: "There's been very little signs of Syria having anything positive to say. Syria is, after all, engaged in trying to undermine the government of Lebanon. Syria is, of course, continuing to play a negative role in the Palestinian conflict....There's just no indication that the Syrian government has anything but disruptive plans right now." "I don't think we need to skip any phases of the roadmap. I think that the roadmap is intended to be a guide to get to a Palestinian state....But the roadmap needs to be fulfilled."
