Ramallah: A Palestinian negotiator says the Israeli prime minister and Palestinian president plan to meet in Occupied Jerusalem on Sunday.
Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat says President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Ehud Olmert will meet Sunday evening in Occupied Jerusalem. Olmert spokesman Mark Regev could not immediately confirm the report.
Abbas and Olmert met just a week ago, and there was no official word on why they would meet again on Sunday.
US mediators have urged them to meet about twice a month, as part of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.
