| Diplomat: Netanyahu, Abdullah discuss Mideast peace |
| 2013-03-03 |
| Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Jordan's King Abdullah II met in Jordan last week and discussed the Middle East peace process, according to a diplomatic source. The source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said, "Last week, Netanyahu travelled to Jordan and met King Abdullah II. In the meeting, they discussed the Middle East peace process." In December, Israeli officials were quoted as confirming a report in an Arab daily about a meeting between Netanyahu and the king in Jordan that focused on Syria's chemical weapons arsenal. Peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians have been on hold since September 2010. The latest discussions between Netanyahu and Abdullah II precede an expected visit by US President Barack Obama, who announced he would be in the region in the spring, with Israeli media putting the date at March 20. |
