Example text
Page 3 The post-Gulf War phase of the Middle East peace process was launched at the October 1991 international conference in Madrid, cosponsored by Russia and the United States. Subsequent negotiations were both bilateral and multilateral. Initially, the bilateral Arab-Israeli negotiations were between Israel and Syria, Israel and Lebanon, and Israel and a Jordanian-Palestinian delegation.
