Despite Foreign Minister Peres\' efforts, the Palestinians have set three conditions for a meeting between Peres and Arafat: Peres must come with a \"clear mandate\" from Prime Minister Sharon, \"good preparations\" must precede the meeting, and diplomatic issues must also be discussed. Sharon has long held that there can be no diplomatic discussions until the Arab violence is stopped for at least seven straight days. In addition, PA senior Nabil Shaath told reporters today that Sharon\'s remarks against Arafat in Moscow this morning have \"raised doubts\" with Arafat over whether he should meet with Peres.
