U.S. Not Bringing Specific Proposals to Middle East Peace Talks in Paris
(Reuters) The U.S. will not bring any specific proposals at a Paris conference meant to set out a framework for fresh negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians, nor has it decided what, if any, role it may play in the French effort, a senior State Department official said on Thursday. The U.S. will "listen to the ideas that the French and others may have, and talk through with them what might make sense going forward," the official said. Secretary of State John Kerry will attend the French conference on Friday. Kerry's efforts to broker a two-state deal collapsed in April 2014.
