Zionist lead peace negotiator Tzipi Livni welcomed on Tuesday an Arab League proposal that “Israel” and the Palestinians could trade land in a bid to move the “peace process” forward.

"This is very good news,” she told Zionist army radio.

“It's definitely an important step -- I welcome it.”

"Let's talk about it -- we are ready for changes, something which will allow the Palestinians, I hope, to enter the (negotiating) room and make the necessary compromises," she said after Arab League representatives said for they would accept the concept of land swaps in the context of an Israeli withdrawal to the pre-1967 occupied lands.

"It also gives a message to Israeli citizens: it is no longer just us ... talking with the Palestinians, there is a group of Arab states who are saying: you reach an agreement with the Palestinians and we will make peace with you, we will have normalization with you."

At a meeting in Washington on Monday, US Secretary of State John Kerry met with top Arab League officials to discuss the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative.

Speaking after the talks, Qatari Prime Minister Hamad Bin Jassim, who led the delegation, agreed that any deal should be based on a two-state solution with the borders defined by the lines which existed before June 4, 1967.

The Qatari PM also expressed support for a proposal by US President Barack Obama for a "comparable and mutual agreed minor swap of the land" between Israelis and Palestinians to reflect the realities of the burgeoning communities on the ground.”
