| Mubarak arrives in Paris, says only Arafat can negotiate with Israel |
| 2002-07-25 |
| Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, who arrives in Paris Wednesday for talks on the Middle East, said in an interview that the peace process would not advance without Yasser Arafat as the Palestinian Authority leader. He said Arafat is "the only Palestinian capable of making concessions." "Whether we like it or not, Arafat remains the democratically elected president by his people," Mubarak was quoted as saying. Guess that settles that, then, doesn't it? No. |
