Any successful mediation
or negotiation depends on the creation of trust, which is no easy
task when the political stakes are very high and the situation is
desperate. Trust cannot be imposed; it must be created, and it is
this that bedevils the current process. It also raises an enormous
question about the bona fides of the Facilitation and the Facilitator:
when one party, let alone a nation, openly expresses reservations
about the Facilitator, why does he not recuse himself, no matter
how much confidence the region may have in him? If he does not,
then we will continue looking under street lights for keys that
will never be found.
