Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Ehud Olmert are expected to meet during an international conference in Paris next week, PA chief negotiator Saeb Erekat said Sunday.
PA officials in Ramallah expressed disappointment at the lack of progress in the peace talks. They said Israel’s actions on the ground sent the wrong message to Palestinians.
Rafik Husseini, director of Abbas’s bureau, said the PA president would continue to negotiate with Israel despite the lack of progress.
“Israel is talking a lot about peace, but its actions on the ground are tantamount to acts of war,” Husseini said. He added that Abbas did not want to suspend the talks so as not to give Israel an excuse to accuse him of foiling the process.
