German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder urged Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to be more flexible on the question of Jewish settlements in the West Bank. Schroeder’s remarks came during a joint news conference Thursday with Sharon. Earlier in the day, Sharon and Schroeder laid wreaths at the Grunewald train station in Berlin, which served as the deportation point for an estimated 80,000 Jews during World War II.
