Kerry to meet Palestinians' Abbas in Paris on tomorrow.
 ABU DHABI (Rooters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will meet Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Paris on Wednesday, the State Department said, as he seeks to nudge Israel and the Palestinians toward a peace deal by the end of April.U.S.-brokered talks between the two sides have made little visible progress since they resumed in July after a three-year hiatus with a goal of reaching an agreement within nine months. Nine months, nine years, nine millennia....no change. Nine months: you mean just before the November elections?

Additional.... 'little visible progress' is expected. Posted by: Besoeker 2014-02-18 |
