Israel and Palestinians to resume peace talks within two weeks

For his part, Palestinian chief negotiator Saeb Erekat said it's time to reach an agreement, adding that "no one benefits more from the success of this endeavor more than Palestinians."

"I'm delighted that all final status issues are on the table and will be resolved without any exceptions. It's time for the Palestinian people to have an independent, sovereign state of their own," Erekat said.

Israeli Justice Minister and Chief Negotiator Tzipi Livni said the path forward is "not going to be easy," but "failure is not an option."

"We all know that it's not going to be easy, it's going to be hard with ups and downs, but I can assure you in these negotiations, it's not our intention to argue about the past, but to create solutions and make decisions for the future," Livni said.

The two parties are expected to sit down again within two weeks.
