U.S.: Agreement on Pre-Annapolis Meeting Statement Unnecessary
[Jerusalem Post] Mark Weiss and Rebecca Anna Stoil - According to a U.S. diplomatic source, Secretary of State Rice is unlikely to return to the Middle East before the Annapolis peace meeting, tentatively set for Nov. 27. Israeli and Palestinian negotiating teams are continuing regular meetings in an effort to draft a joint statement of principles to be presented at Annapolis. But American sources said Washington would press ahead with the event even if the Israelis and Palestinians failed to agree on the wording of a joint document.
