Summary
This document appears to be a page from a proof copy of a book (likely a memoir by Terje Rød-Larsen or a close associate) detailing the history of the Oslo Accords between Israel and the PLO. It describes the secret negotiations in Oslo and Paris, the geopolitical shifts (Gulf War, collapse of Soviet Union) that pressured the PLO to negotiate, and the internal pressures on Israel caused by the Intifada. The document bears a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp, suggesting it was part of an investigation, potentially related to the narrator's later connections to Jeffrey Epstein, although Epstein is not mentioned in this specific text.
