JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel’s foreign minister has said that Israel would not cave in to foreign dictates on its treatment of the Palestinians. Eli Cohen’s comments came Wednesday in a meeting with his Norwegian counterpart coinciding with the 30th anniversary of the Oslo peace accords. His remarks underscored the deterioration of Mideast peace efforts since the historic interim peace deal. Substantive negotiations have not taken place in years, and Israel is led by a far-right government opposed to Palestinian statehood. The accords were reached during secret talks in Norway.
