Israel must come up with peace offer: Arab League chief
 Arab League chief Amr Mussa on Tuesday said an Arab summit later this month expects Israel to make a serious offer on peace instead of resorting to tricks to waste time. We expect an offer, a position from Israel in so far as peace is concerned, Mussa told reporters in Amman following talks with Jordanian Foreign Minister Abdel Ilah Khatib on the March 28-29 summit in Saudi Arabia. We fail to see any offer, any talk about serious peace, the secretary general said ahead of a meeting with King Abdullah II as part of a regional tour to prepare for the summit. What we see is the same old policy of building Jewish settlements, of procrastination, of resorting to tricks one after the other in order to waste time, Mussa said. Mussa reiterated the Arabs refusal to amend a Saudi peace initiative first launched at a 2002 summit in Beirut and which leaders hope to revive when they meet in Riyadh. Posted by: Fred 2007-03-21 |
