JERUSALEM, Sept 10: (AFP): Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas began a new round of talks on Monday ahead of an international peace meeting later this year.
Abbas's motorcade arrived under heavy security at Olmert's residence in west Jerusalem shortly after 0900 GMT for the leaders' third encounter in five weeks.
They were to meet in the presence of their respective teams before holding a one-on-one session to once again tackle the thorniest issues of the decades-old Middle East conflict, seeking to hammer out some sort of an agreement before a US-sponsored peace conference expected in November.
