In the video, Atal Bihari Vajpayee spoke in Hindi and said, "People are saying that the Janata Party has become the government. They won't support the Arabs but will support Israel. Morarji Bhai clarified this situation. To clear up the confusion, I want to stress the importance of evaluating each party based on its strengths and weaknesses. The situation in the Middle East is clear. Israel needs to vacate the land it took from the Arabs."
“Our policy has been longstanding and consistent. India always advocated the resumption of direct negotiations towards establishing a sovereign, independent and viable state of Palestine, living within secure and recognised borders, side by side at peace with Israel. I think that position remains the same,” he said.
