"...Regarding Israel's borders, Netanyahu says he plans on keeping 50% of the West Bank, including the Jordan Valley.The prime minister also says he is willing to adopt the two-state solution but demands restrictions be imposed upon any future Palestinian state. Among other things his government is demanding control of the Palestinian state's airspace as well as its border crossings, and the power to limit its relations with countries such as Iran.
Regarding relations with Syria, Netanyahu is expected to inform the US president that Israel will not cede the Golan Heights.
"Syria has armed itself, and its armament is endangering Israel's security," a Jerusalem official said. "However the balance of power has been maintained thanks to the IDF's prowess and our control of the Golan."
