Israel Optimistic on Quartet's PA Stance
[Jerusalem Post] Herb Keinon - Israel is not expecting any fundamental change in the Quartet's position toward the PA at a meeting of the Quartet in Berlin on Wednesday meant as a follow up to Monday's trilateral meeting in Jerusalem, Israeli diplomatic sources said Tuesday. Israel's ambassador to the UN, Dan Gillerman, said he expected the Quartet "to continue exerting pressure on the Palestinian leadership to embrace the three basic conditions" - recognize Israel, renounce violence, and accept previous Israeli-Palestinian agreements. "By displaying a united front, the international community has made clear to Hamas that it will not be engaged until it meets its responsibilities."
