France’s special envoy to visit next week
France’s special envoy for its initiative to renew Israeli-Palestinian peace talks will visit Israel next week in an effort to advance plans for a regional peace conference to take place in the summer, the French Embassy in Israel announces.
Pierre Vimont, the French Foreign Ministry envoy “for the preparation of the international conference to renew the Middle East peace process,” will arrive in Israel on Sunday for two days of meetings with officials in Ramallah and Tel Aviv.
The summit is scheduled to take place in June or July, despite Israeli complaints that peace negotiations should take the form of direct talks.
