The situation in the region, he emphasizes, is alarming and could explode, more than at any time in the past, abetted¹¹ by terrorism that thrives on delayed peace and regional forces that seek to drag the region into the abyss.

Well, if we wait for the conditions to be ripe to talk peace, we will be waiting a long time, and in the meantime we will be giving the initiative to extremists, everywhere."
他说，这是一个意愿问题。我们举行会议是仅仅为了会谈，还是要冒险来实现和平？ 有人告诉我说，和平的条件还不成熟。那么如果我们等待和平谈判的条件成熟，我们将等待很长的时间，同时也就给各处的激进份子有可乘之机。

萨科齐所说的激进份子包括伊斯兰组织哈马斯运动，这个激进组织控制着加沙。国际捐助国在使用重建加沙的资金方面不要哈马斯参与。
