Condoleezza Rice, US Secretary of State
A year after the peace talks held in Annapolis, Maryland, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has scheduled a four-day visit to several countries in the Middle East.
The purpose of this visit is to advance peace talks with the authorities of Egypt, Israel, Jordan and Palestinian territories.
Rice will be leaving on the 5th of November, after knowing the results of the US elections. She will meet the EU, US, UN and Russia representatives in Egypt, at the Sharm el-Sheikh resort.
This trip comes as a consequence of recent reports that show the Middle East Quartet have been failing their mission of maintaining control over the peace process.
Last year, the peace talks that have been held in the US have been an effort to initiate a process of reconciling Israel and Palestinians. The meeting was not very successful then, and it doesn’t promise to bring great results this year either. The two sides have remained in deep conflict ever since.
