Event Details

This document appears to be a page from a memoir or historical account (marked with a House Oversight stamp) detailing secret Israeli-Syrian peace negotiations in late 1994. The narrator (likely Israeli Chief of Staff Ehud Barak, based on context) describes meetings in Washington D.C. at Blair House with Syrian Ambassador Walid Muallem and subsequently with Syrian Chief of Staff General Himat Shihabi, facilitated by US envoy Dennis Ross. The text focuses on the diplomatic strategy regarding the Golan Heights and the attempt to build trust through informal channels.
