Part II of 'From Oslo to Gaza': Mideast Peace Negotiator Robert Malley on the Errors of the Past

Mideast peace negotiator Robert Malley continues his conversation with Margot Patterson about the road to Oct. 7th. Part I of the interview aired May 15.  In Part II, he speaks about the differing strategies pursued by Palestinian leaders Yasser Arafat and Mahmoud Abbas, U.S. misconceptions of Palestinian politics, the lack of accountability for failed U.S. policies in the Middle East, the worsening of the Occupation due to the Oslo Accords and the dangers posed by the unresolved conflicts in Gaza, Iran, Lebanon and the West Bank. Malley held senior positions under three Democratic presidents. He was at the Camp David summit in 2000, served as special assistant to President Obama and lead negotiator of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and was appointed special envoy to Iran by President Biden. He is the author, with Hussein Agha, of the new book Tomorrow is Yesterday: Life, Death and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine.
