Egyptian - Palestinian summit soon

An Egyptian - Palestinian summit will be held soon under the chairmanship of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Palestinian President Yasser Arafat that will tackle the developments in the area and the tensions created by Israel by issuing declarations that are provocative to the Palestinian leadership and people.

A Palestinian official blamed Israel for releasing provocative statements against the Palestinian people which increases violence and tensions, saying that this affects the negotiations.

Moreover a Palestinian source added that, "The Egyptian - Palestinian summit is a resumption of the summit held at the end of last month in Paris," and that, "Israel's continuation in building the settlements and threatening the peace tracks will be discussed."
