On this episode of Old Newscast, we go back to September 13 1993, when long term enemies Yitzhak Rabin, the Israeli Prime Minister and Yasser Arafat, Chairman of the PLO shake hands on the White House lawn.
They shook hands after decades of violence and publicly acknowledged a peace process that produced a set of agreements known as the Oslo Accords. The handshake came about after a series of secret negotiations held in Norway, where negotiators from both sides lived together until they came to an agreement.
Adam speaks to Jane Corbin from BBC Panorama, who had the inside scoop during the secret negotiations, and BBC Chief International Correspondent who reported on the peace process.
