Study Shows Middle East Peace Could Add Over $170 billion To Region's Economies

A new report from a Washington DC thinktank has said the Israeli and Palestinian economies could gain around 173 billion dollars in ten years, if a peace deal were struck that led to an independent Palestine.

The RAND corporation estimates that such an agreement would translate to an average income increase of a thousand dollars for each Palestinian, and over two thousand dollars for each Israeli.

Lorna Shaddick reports from Washington.
