I think Prime Minister Begin and President Sadat could have reached a fairly quick solution of just the Egyptian- Israeli problem in just the Sinai region. But this is not what they want. They both want to try to'resolve the other questions/' Regarding Israel's plan for the West Bank, Carter stated that he does "favor; a homeland or an entity wherein the Palestinians can live in peace. I think Prime Minister Begin has taken a long step forward offering to President Sadat, and indirectly to the Palestinians, self-rule." Carter added that Sadat "so far is insisting that the so-called Palestinian entity be an independent nation.
