Sharon-Abbas Summit To Come?
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will meet this month, their first summit since Jewish settlers were evacuated from occupied Gaza, an Israeli newspaper said on Saturday.
Haaretz said in its online edition that the leaders would meet at the end of the month after attending a September 14-16 summit at the United Nations. Israeli political sources confirmed talks were expected this month but had no details on the date or venue.
The Palestinians denied a summit had been set. But Abbas said in a published interview he would welcome new talks with Sharon that could help advance a U.S.-led “road map” to peace.
