Sharon will meet Abbas in Ramallah
2005-02-10
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is ready to meet Palestinian leader Mahmud Abbas in the West Bank city of Ramallah, an aide to Sharon said on Wednesday. The comment followed a landmark summit in Egypt on Tuesday where the two leaders agreed to a ceasefire to end more than four years of bloodshed in the Middle East. In Sharm, Sharon's spokesman said the premier had invited Abbas to his farm in Israel's southern Negev desert and held out the possibility of a meeting in Ramallah, the political capital of the Palestinian Authority.

Meanwhile, Israeli ministers will discuss on Sunday who will make up the first batch of 500 Palestinian detainees to be freed by Israel following a landmark Middle East summit, an official source said on Tuesday. "The inter-ministerial committee on prisoners is due to meet just before the next weekly cabinet meeting to discuss the 500 prisoners Israel is committed to releasing," said a statement from the Sharon's office.
