Confusion about Mursi alleged message of peace to Israel

The Egyptian President the existence of a peace message from President Mohammed Mursi to his Israeli counterpart Shimon Peres denied."Everything that was published in Israeli newspapers and on to some Egyptian websites, invented and without factual basis," said the spokesman for President Yasser Ali, the government newspaper Al-Ahram . The Israeli side, however, said the letter had been handed over to the Egyptian embassy in Tel Aviv. The diplomatic representation has even agreed to the publication. That now get a denial, be surprising, given the huge media interest, not the letter, said a senior official, who wished to remain anonymous. The Israeli President was yesterday quoted passages from the alleged letter to Peres Mursi and a facsimile common. This is the Egyptian president has called for "joint efforts" to "make the Middle East peace process rolling again" in order. This stake was "security and stability for all peoples of the region - including the Israeli people - allow".

Letter implied the recognition of Israel

This formulation was because Mursi, an Islamist and former official of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, to recognize Israel's existence seemed. He would also be clearly separated from the Gaza Strip, the ruling radical Islamist Hamas. It had emerged from the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, Israel argues, however, from right to exist. Peres had Mursi congratulated on his election in June and the beginning of the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan on 20 Again in July sent a letter to him. Egypt had closed the first Arab country in 1979 a peace agreement with Israel. The election of the former Muslim brother in Israel, however, Mursi had raised fears that he could put into question the peace treaty .
