Netanyahu and Kerry Meet to Discuss Palestinian UN Bid
(Washington Post) Daniela Deane - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was due to meet U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry in Rome on Monday after the Palestinians announced they will put a resolution before the UN Security Council by Wednesday which sets a November 2016 deadline for an Israeli retreat from the West Bank. Kerry is due to meet senior Palestinian officials in London Tuesday. Both Israel and the U.S. have said Palestinian statehood should be negotiated, not forced through UN resolutions.
