This document appears to be a page from a memoir (likely by Ehud Barak, produced in a House Oversight investigation) detailing historical diplomatic negotiations between Israel, Syria, and the US during the mid-1990s. It describes Yitzhak Rabin's strategy to prioritize the Syrian track over the Oslo/Palestinian track by offering a conditional withdrawal from the Golan Heights, known as the 'pocket deposit,' which was conveyed to Syrian President Assad via US Secretary of State Warren Christopher. The text highlights internal Israeli secrecy, noting that Rabin concealed this offer from Shimon Peres.
