Ynet – President Shimon Peres said at the Globes Business Conference that “I am ready to meet with (Iranian President Hassan) Rohani. I don’t have enemies. We don’t see Iran as an enemy. Antagonism isn’t a personal issue. It’s a matter of policy.
“There were days when we didn’t want to meet with Arafat, but when he changed his policies, we said ‘why not?’ We’re in favor of peace, and I believe the goal is to turn enemies into friends.”
