Paris: France plans to
invite Palestinian and Israeli leaders for peace talks scheduled
for September in Paris, a media report said.
France is eager to generate a concrete alternative to stop the
long deadly conflict in the Middle East, Xinhua reported citing
Europe 1 radio.
French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said he hoped Palestine and
Israel could return to the dialogue with more effort from the
Middle East Quartet - the European Union, UN, US and Russia.
"France is now planning to organise a donor conference for
Palestinians in the first half of September and which would be a
conference of peace with Israel," Europe 1 radio quoted Juppe as
saying.
Direct negotiations between Palestine and Israel have not
proceeded since 2008.
The Palestinian authority will reportedly ask the UN General
Assembly in September to recognise a Palestinian state.
