Logo for HARDtalk - Martin Indyk, Former US Ambassador to Israel

Stephen Sackur talks to Martin Indyk, a former US ambassador in Israel and Middle East adviser to President Clinton, and asks him whether he thinks Obama's Middle East strategy is destined to end in tears. Does Barack Obama really believe that comprehensive peace in the Middle East is achievable? His administration is making intensive diplomatic efforts in the region, but neither the Israelis nor the Palestinians appear keen to enter meaningful negotiations.
