By ASSOCIATED PRESS
AMMAN, Jordan
Israel and the Palestinians should resume direct negotiations immediately after the Palestinian leadership elections on Jan. 9, Jordan's Foreign Minister Hani al-Mulqi said Thursday.
Al-Mulqi's comment came during talks with Swiss Foreign Minister Micheline Calmy Rey, the official Petra news agency reported. Calmy Rey is attending a three-day conference in Jordan of some 250 women from Israel, the Palestinian territories, the United States, Europe and Africa on ways to help revive peace talks to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Petra said al-Mulqi and Calmy Rey discussed ways to support the Middle East peace process and the need to take advantage of the new positive atmosphere.
