Livni holds in-camera meeting with PLO Fatah officials

Thursday 28-December-2006

NAZARETH (PIC)– Israeli foreign minister Tzipi Livni has met with two PLO and Fatah officials three days ago in line with ongoing “backdoor” negotiations between the two parties on major issues according to Ma’ariv daily on Thursday.

The paper said that the meeting was held on Monday 25/12 noting that it came only few days after PA chief Mahmoud Abbas proposed holding such secret channels during his meeting with Israeli premier Ehud Olmert.

It said that Livini has been preparing an initiative to resume negotiations with the Palestinians over final status of major questions depending on the Geneva document that wiped out the Palestinian refugees’ right of return and included Israeli readiness to evacuate a number of West Bank settlements.

The report named the PLO executive committee member Yasser Abed Rabbo and Fatah leader and former PA finance minister Salam Fayyadh as the officials that met Livni.
