More quotes by Shimon Peres

India and Israel are co-operating on security and intelligence matters because we have a common enemy: terrorism.

If world is suspicious that Israel may detonate nuclear bomb and if the suspicion is a deterrent — that's good enough.

If a problem has no solution, it may not be a problem, but a fact, not to be solved, but to be coped with over time.

Iran is a great problem, but not necessarily a great country. In fact, I think it is a very weak country.
