Israeli Prime MInister Benjamin Netanyahu says his policy on Jerusalem will not change, a day after failing to resolve a row with the United States. Benjamin Netanyahu's statement came as he prepared to brief senior cabinet colleagues on the talks with President Barack Obama. The row over Israel's plans to build settlements in East Jerusalem has caused one of the worst crises in US-Israeli ties for decades. Mr Netanyahu met President Barack Obama on Tuesday and held further talks on Wednesday with US Middle East envoy George Mitchell. The White House has been trying to persuade Mr Netanyahu to commit to several trust-building measures to revive hopes for indirect proximity talks between Israel and the Palestinians.Binyamin Netanyahu called an emergency meeting of his inner cabinet today, after returning from Washington. According to Netanyahu's cabinet secretary the group of seven senior ministers would consider a package of goodwill gestures drawn up during Netanyahu's US visit. Reports suggest that the relations between Israel and US strained after Israel announced plans to build 1,600 settlements on occupied Palestinian land earlier this month during US vice president’s visit to Israel
