BEIJING, November 18, SPA -- President Barack Obama says Israel"s latest move to build hundreds of new Jewish housing units in a neighborhood claimed by the Palestinians complicates administration efforts to relaunch peace talks and embitters the Palestinians, according to a report of The Associated Press. Obama told Fox News in an interview Wednesday that additional settlement building doesn"t make Israel safer. He said such moves make it harder to achieve peace in the region, and embitters the Palestinians in a way that he said could be very dangerous. Obama and the Palestinians have demanded that Israel halt settlement construction. --SPA 15:33 LOCAL TIME 12:33 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/720317
