On Friday, U.S. President Barak Obama spoke for a moment, during a press conference about domestic issues, about the Middle East Peace Process

Here is the full press conference.

At about minute 34 he gets asked, and answers, what will happen if the peace talks fail at this stage.

Obama gets asked about the continuing of the construction freeze at about minute 52, and he gets to the answer at about minute 58. He doesnt seem to, at least publicly, be insisting that Netanyahu extend the freeze, though it is clear he hopes Netanyahu will.
