Netanyahu: Sarkozy Wants PA to Recognize Israel as Jewish

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu in Paris on Thursday said French President Nicholas Sarkozy wants the PA to recognize Israel as a Jewish state, the Associated Press reports.

"What I heard from President Sarkozy is that they must recognize Israel as the state of the Jewish people," Netanyahu said outside the Elysee Palace in Paris.

Netanyahu described his meeting with Sarkozy as "good, far-ranging and friendly."

"I heard from President Sarkozy...that anyone who wants to make peace with Israel must state in the clearest manner that he is committed to peace with Israel...to peace and not to terror," he told reporters.
