Israeli and Palestinian negotiators have agreed to hold their first meeting in more than a year in an effort to restart peace talks. Jordan said it would host the gathering on Tuesday as part of what it called serious efforts to resume direct peace negotiations. Sean Fanning reports.
以色列和巴勒斯坦协商者同意在约一年内举行首次会议,以重启和平会谈。约旦称周二将主持会议,这是它所谓的为继续直接的和平谈判所做的郑重努力。Sean Fanning报道。
After a brief resumption in late 2010, talks collapsed over continued Israeli settlement construction in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Officials are stressing that Tuesday's meeting does not amount to renewed talks but is about exploring how to resume direct negotiations.
2010年进行了短暂的重启会谈后,由于以色列不断在西岸和东耶路撒冷建设项目,会谈就中断了。官方强调,周二的会议并不意味着重启谈判,但会探索重启直接会谈的办法。
The Jordanian foreign minister will host meetings with the Israeli prime minister's chief envoy Yitzhak Molcho and the main Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat. Diplomats from the United Nations, the European Union and the United States and Russia will also be involved.
