French President Jacques Chirac will hold talks Wednesday with Arab League Secretary General Amr Moussa, official sources at Chiracs office announced Monday. The talks, which will take place on the sidelines of a colloquium Moussa is attending at the Arab World Institute, will cover a number of regional and international flashpoints, mainly the worsening crisis with Iran, the ongoing violence in Iraq, the developments with the Hamas-led Palestinian government and Israel and the Syria-Lebanon issue. Moussa, who is also expected to meet with other senior French officials, will inaugurate a one-day forum destined to examine "Euro-Arab" dialogue with a view to developing a "strategic partnership" between the two sides. The forum is being held under the patronage of Chirac and will include participation by the EU Special Envoy for Foreign Affairs, Javier Solana among other senior officials.
