November 14, 2014 - 08:37 AM King Abdullah met with Kerry and Netanyahu yesterday to discuss peace for Isreal. On the peace process, the King called on the US and all stakeholders to work as soon as possible to address the obstacles facing peace efforts and the resumption of talks to reach a solution in line with the two-state formula, leading to the establishment of an independent and viable Palestinian state within the pre-1967 lines, with East Jerusalem as its capital. His Majesty and the two officials discussed with Sisi over the phone the peace process, the situation in Jerusalem and anti-terrorism efforts, while the King expressed sympathies with Egypt, which has been targeted by a series of terrorist attacks in various parts of the country, the Royal Court said. Earlier in the day, King Abdullah held a meeting with Kerry, during which he underlined Jordan’s commitment to continued coordination with all stakeholders to revive peace talks that address all final-status issues, which, he said, require a genuine Israeli intention to stop the unilateral measures and frequent attacks on Jerusalem. King Abdullah said there is no other option but to establish the envisioned Palestinian state. |
