Beilin: Peace Conference Planned for May
(IsraelNN.com) Meretz MK Yossi Beilin announced Tuesday that the United States was planning a peace conference between Israeli and Palestinian Authority officials in May. The conference will follow up on the Annapolis Conference of 2007, and will be held in Sharm el-Sheikh in Egypt, he said.
Beilin said the Egyptian and Jordanian leaders would be present at the conference as well. The meeting’s goal is to speed talks towards a permanent agreement, he said. US President George Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice have repeatedly stressed the importance of reaching a peace deal by the end of 2008, when their terms will be over.
