Prime Minister-designate Benjamin Netanyahu says his government will make every effort to reach "a durable peace with all of Israel's Arab neighbors."
Netanyahu made the statement in an address to the Knesset in Jerusalem during a special session marking 30 years since the signing of the Israel-Egypt peace treaty.
"Whenever Israel stands before peace-seeking Arab leader, it follows and answers the call,".
"A bereaved people understands the importance of peace," Netanyahu said, adding that all Israeli governments, no matter the political orientation, "reaches out its hand in peace."
"Israelis know how to spot genuine peace whenever it is offered,but the real test of peace is in its stability and its durability."
