Israel and Syria are making their first attempt for more than seven years to reach a comprehensive peace which, if successful, would mean Israel giving up the Golan Heights, seized in the 1967 Six-Day War.
Both governments confirmed in closely similar terms yesterday that they were taking part in "indirect" negotiations brokered by Turkey. The office of the Israeli Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert, said: "The two sides have declared their intent to conduct these... talks without prejudice and with openness."
