The Arab Peace Initiative Committee (APIC) has scheduled a ministerial meeting for early next week at the request of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, said Amr Moussa, UN Secretary General of the League of Arab States.
In a press statement on Wednesday, Moussa said that Abbas had asked APIC Chairman Sheikh Hamad bin Jassem bin Jabr al-Thani to schedule the meeting.
Moussa added that al-Thani, who is also the Qatari Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, contacted him to discuss preparing for the meeting in which they will discuss Arab strategy in light the US administration’s decision to drop the issue of Israeli settlement construction for now.
