U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell is to meet with Minister Shimon Peres at the Foreign Ministry this morning. Peres took a stance which differed to that of his Prime Minister before the meeting when he said that there is no chance that the Palestinians will accept Sharon\'s plan, and in addition that the new Yesha outposts must be dismantled.
Powell will meet with Sharon upon the latter\'s return from his trip to the U.S. and Great Britain. Yesha Council leaders demonstrated outside the Foreign Ministry today with oil barrels, dramatizing the connection between the American pressure on Israel and their anxiety not to antagonize the oil-producing countries.
