Reviving negotiations on Syrian, Lebanese tracks serves Israel, Israeli politician says

An Israeli political source said on Friday that reviving negotiations on the Syrian and Lebanese tracks will be in the interest of Israel. He added that achieving progress on the two said tracks will lessen the volume of pressure placed on Israel concerning negotiations with the Palestinians, Israeli radio reported.

The radio report added that the Israeli political source expressed a conviction that the US prefers first of all to invest all efforts in reviving negotiations on the Palestinian track.
