 We have just concluded a very useful meeting in lunch with King Hussein. We all recognize that the positive atmosphere which has developed in the Middle East recently can be credited in great measure to His Majesty King Hussein. Steps he has taken over the last year gave new momentum to the search for peace. Our discussions today have provided further evidence of Jordan's commitment to a peaceful resolution of the Middle East conflicts which should prompt a sense of gratitude from men of goodwill everywhere. The United States has long played a central role in the Middle East peace process. We're proud of what we've helped accomplish, and we look forward to continuing to make meaningful contributions. But we hope that His Majesty's courageous steps forward can lead to direct negotiations between the parties based on United Nations Security Council resolutions 242 and 338 by the end of this year, and we'll do our part to help bring this about. Our goal remains a just, lasting, and comprehensive peace which will satisfy the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people and provide for the security of all states in the region, including Israel. We recognize Jordan's economic and security needs, and in the spirit of working together, I have told the king that we will be able to count on the United States for assistance in addressing problems which Jordan may face in those areas. We are pleased and proud to have had His Majesty here with us today. Thank you very much indeed, Mr. President, for your kind words. Ladies and gentlemen, I have had a full, friendly, and useful discussion with the President on all issues of mutual concern. Regarding the prospects of peace in our area, I have told the President that a just, comprehensive, and durable peace in the Middle East should secure the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, including their right of self-determination within the context of a Jordanian-Palestinian confederation. I have also assured the President that on the basis of the Jordan PLO Accord of 11th February, and as a result of my recent talks with the PLO, and in view of our genuine desire for peace, we are willing to negotiate within the context of an international conference a peaceful settlement on the basis of the permanent United Nations resolutions including Security Council resolutions 242 and 338. We are offering a unique opportunity for peace which might not be with us for long. I hope the United States, under the courageous and dedicated leadership of President Reagan, will find a way to seize this opportunity and respond positively to our peace efforts. The active and balanced role of the United States is an essential element for the success of the peace process. I would like to thank the President for his hospitality and kind words and wish him continued good health and every success. In that regard, it is our hope that an international conference would enable the parties to the conflict to negotiate the establishment of a just and durable peace in the Middle East. We need the international umbrella to offer us the opportunity to negotiate and when I speak of negotiations, I obviously mean negotiations amongst the party to the conflict. In other words, negotiations between the Arab side, in this case a Jordanian-Palestinian delegation with Israel on the other side. This is under discussion and we have not resolved some differences that we have in views on this, but we are going to certainly continue in these discussions. We have made it very plain here to for and nothing has changed with regard to those conditions under which we would meet with the PLO. Well, I can cite an example of the international conference of 1973. We met and negotiations were carried out between the Arab side and Israel. This is, I believe, a last chance for peace, we are approaching it. As I've explained, determined to do all we could for the establishment of a just and durable peace in our area and obviously when we speak of negotiations, we speak of them within the context of an international conference, but negotiations amongst the parties to the conflict. Well, we certainly are approaching the whole issue, not in a belligerent fashion. I'm almost sure of that. What I have said in my statement is the result of my discussions with the PLO, yes. I'm certainly hoping very, very much indeed that we will see some progress this year, yes. This is all being worked on right now with us or together. This is what we are discussing. Who's he asking? Which one of us? We think that the situation in Lebanon with regard to the peace process will be resolved completely when Israel has made its complete withdrawal from Lebanon. Wait a minute. There's a young lady over here who's been trying to... Oh, no. The people we have working there are going to continue. Well... I'm not going to respond to that question because, as I say, we're still discussing this whole matter and I'm not going to get into any great details, things of that kind. As I say, just generally, we're discussing and hopeful of arriving at a solution. I've spoken of an international conference and of the five-minute members of the Security Council. Well, that's what we are all working on, as the President has said. Yes, sir. I'm saying that. Every word I've made in my statement is a result of agreement between us and the Fialo. Fialo. Yes. Wait, wait, one sec. Wait, wait. Wait. Now, what? His Majesty has said that they've discussed this and, yes, that this... Well, as I've said, our terms have been made very plain for quite some time as to what is necessary for us to negotiate with the Fialo and they remain unchanged. I think we've said enough, sir. No. Well, because... Oh, well, I will answer then this word that this was the last chance and then this is the last we're going to take. The last chance... I think that the conditions have never been more right than they are now to pursue this peace. And who knows whether those conditions will ever come as close together again as they have now, so that's why I think the term last chance. And I think we ought to keep that in mind that perhaps it is the last chance. And now we're not going to take any more questions and I feel a few drops of rain and it doesn't bother His Majesty or me, but we won't want any of you to get wet, so... Thank you.
