Brief Analysis
Just days before President George W. Bush hosted a Middle East peace "meeting" in Annapolis intended to provide new impetus for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, The Washington Institute held a special policy forum with David Makovsky and Dennis Ross to assess the evolution of the Annapolis summit, its prospects for diplomatic success, and its connection to wider U.S. Middle East policy.
David Makovsky is a senior fellow and director of the Project on the Middle East Peace Process at the Institute.
Dennis Ross is counselor and Zieglar distinguished fellow at the Institute; he was the peace process coordinator during the administration of President Bill Clinton.
