Former British Prime Minister and Special U.N. Envoy to the Middle East Tony Blair testified about negotiations and efforts to achieve a peace agreement between Israelis and Palestinians. In his testimony he said that there was a “moment of opportunity” for a peaceful settlement, but he also acknowledged the formidable obstacles to a negotiated settlement, including internal Palestinian divisions and the continued expansion of Israeli settlements into areas the Palestinians want to include in their state.
