Obama ‘wants to host Netanyahu-Abbas meeting during visit’....Israel’s deputy foreign minister says efforts to set up summit already under way

US President Barack Obama wants to host a summit between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas during his visit here this spring, Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon said Wednesday.

Ayalon said he was “certain” that efforts to arrange such a meeting were already under way.

Interviewed on Army Radio, Ayalon said that Obama plainly would not be visiting Israel unless it was already clear that the visit would mark some kind of substantive agreement. A three-way Obama-Netanyahu-Abbas meeting would presumably mark a resumption of peace negotiations.


Interesting.....
