The US President George Bush has considered the Saudi initiative debated by the Saudi crown prince Abdullah as a very positive development.

In a press conference he held after the talks he held with the Egyptian President Muhammad Hosni Mubarak at the White House on Tuesday, the US President said that the initiative of the Saudi crown prince constitutes a very positive development. He added that it will be difficult to achieve any sort of peace before ending the cycle of violence.

For his part, President Mubarak said that it is the first time in which Saudi Arabia expressed through this initiative to normalize its relations with Israel with the fall of peace in the Middle East.
