  • Story Text: U.S. envoy to the Middle East Anthony Zinni has met
    with European Union Foreign Policy Chief Javier Solana in Tel
    Aviv in another effort to push forward the peace process.


    U.S envoy Anthony Zinni briefly met European Union
    foreign policy chief Javier Solana who arrived on Sunday
    (Sunday 6) to meet officials from the two sides before
    travelling to Egypt and Jordan during his tour of the region.

    European union Foreign Policy Chief Javier Solana will
    meet officials from the two sides to build on Zinni's efforts
    to forge a ceasefire after 15 months of violence.

    Before leaving the region, Zinni issued a statement saying
    his meetings had set in motion the planning process needed to
    implement a ceasefire plan to end the violence in which at
    least 800 Palestinians and 234 Israelis have died.

    Zinni's first visit to the region was aborted last month
    after a surge in violence.
