EU FMs to Meet Arab Quartet on Mideast Peace
BRUSSELS, May 10, 2007 (WAFA) - European Union foreign ministers are scheduled to meet key Arab nations next week to discuss prospects for reviving Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, DPA quoted EU diplomats as saying Thursday.
EU ministers are expected to meet their counterparts from Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan in Brussels on May 14.
The four countries are members of a so-called Arab "quartet" which is driving forward a resurrected Arab initiative designed to end conflict in the region.
The peace proposal, initially at an Arab League summit in 2002, includes a land-for-peace offer to Israel and has been warmly welcomed by the EU as one way of breaking the current deadlock between Israelis and Palestinians.
The Arab group is working closely on Middle East peace prospects with an international quartet which includes the EU as well as the United States, Russia and the United Nations.
