Israel is trying to initiate new contacts for the POW deal, the mediator in the Shalit deal Gershon Baskin spoke with Israel Cohen and Vicki Adkamer about the mediation efforts.

Hamas does not signal a desire to return to talks for another prisoner deal, when the pressure on the government to bring about a deal increases with each passing day, meanwhile, every few days Israel announces the death of abductees in captivity, when it seems that the abductees’ time is running out.

In recent days Israel is discussing the possibility of offering Hamas a deal that it cannot refuse, and not waiting for Hamas to offer its own deal, while in the background the head of the Mossad is meeting in Europe with the Prime Minister of Qatar on the subject of starting contacts for a renewed deal.

When in the coming days the head of the Mossad is scheduled to travel to Europe again for a meeting with the Qatari Prime Minister, the person who was the mediator in the Shalit Gershan Baskin deal spoke with Israel Cohen and Vicky Adamkar on ‘Shmona Eps Eps’, about the possible deal, and the initiative that Israel should take in the negotiations.
