However, what has followed the drama on Friday is equally interesting. Within hours of Israeli Radio broadcasting the report of ‘strange’ encounter in Rome, a red faced Khatami issued a rejoinder strongly denying meeting or shaking hands with the Israeli president. The rejoinder must have reminded many in Europe about a similar incident some months ago when an embarrassed Jack Straw of Britain had denied shaking hands with President Mugabe of Zimbabwe.
In total contrast with Khatami, president Assad has confirmed the handshake with the Israeli leader. We believe the Syrian leader has demonstrated rare political maturity by standing by his actions. This is hardly surprising though considering the fact Syria has repeatedly said it wants unconditional peace with Israel.
