| Abbas meets Mitchell in peace bid |
| 2009-04-19 |
| [Al Arabiya Latest] Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas discussed peace prospects with a United States envoy Mideast envoy George Mitchell on Friday as two top Hamas leaders made their first appearances at public events since Israel's Gaza war. The meeting between Mitchell and Abbas came amid warnings that peace talks cannot advance unless Israel's new government commits to a two-state solution. "Until the (Benjamin) Netanyahu government unequivocally affirms its support for the two-state solution, implements Israel's roadmap obligations and abides by previous agreements, Palestinians have no partner for peace," top negotiator Saeb Erakat said after the meeting in Ramallah, political capital of the occupied West Bank. |
