Terrorism will spread if Israel fails to address "fundamental" issues with the Palestinians, Egyptian President Hosny Mubarak warned on Wednesday during talks with Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, dpa reported. Mubarak criticised Israel's refusal to address the definite borders of a future Palestinian state during indirect peace talks with the Palestinians that have been approved by Arab nations. According to the Egyptian president, Israel's insistence on discussing only "secondary issues," such as the environment and the rights to airspace, threatened to stall any peaceful resolution of the conflict. "Then we will see terrorism increase and spread throughout the world," Mubarak said. Berlusconi said Italy, together with its international allies, is "putting pressure" on both the Israelis and Palestinians to resume negotiations. -- SPA
