President Peres has politely suggested that the European Union to step out of Middle Eastern affairs while delicate negotiations are in process between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. …

The Israeli president, who is also visiting Lithuania, thanked Latvia for helping to convince the European Union to list the military wing of the Hizbullah terror organization as a terrorist entity. But Peres also criticized the EU for blocking financial aid to Israeli institutions located in Judea, Samaria and areas of Jerusalem restored to the capital following the 1967 Six Day War. …

My guess, Netanyahu has stated he would put any peace plan that Livni and the PA work out up for a referendum vote. Peres is worried that the EU’s treatment of Israel by holding back aid and boycotting settlement products for “mistreating” Palestinians in “occupied” areas might cause a ground swell against his long dreamed for “two state solution” in that referendum vote.

Peres is still Peres.
