奥巴马总统敦促阿拉伯国家领袖对这场演说仔细研究，而不要急于做评断。

奥巴马总统说，内塔尼亚胡总理愿意考虑以两国方案解决冲突，尽管他带有条件，但这依然是向前迈出的积极一步。
"There were a lot of conditions. And, obviously, working through the conditions on Israel's side for security as well as the Palestinian side for sovereignty and territorial⁴ integrity and the capacity to have a functioning, prosperous state - that's exactly what negotiations⁵ are supposed to be about," he said. "But what we're seeing is at least the possibility that we can restart serious talks."
奥巴马说：“方案中有许多附带条件，而且很明显，努力保证以色列方面要求的安全以及巴勒斯坦人要求的主权与领土完整以及建立一个正常和繁荣的国家，这正是应该通过双边协商所实现的。但我们至少看到了重新开启正式会谈的可能性。”

他说：“我想以巴双方都了解，按照过去的协议，修建定居点的活动被认为是违法的，如果这些活动持续下去，势必会成为对和平进程的障碍。”
