Obama hopes to jump-start Middle East peace talks
The White House this morning announced a series of meetings later this month between President Obama and key partners for a Middle East peace effort.
New Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be the first to come to Washington, on May 18. He will be followed by President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt on May 26, and by President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian authority on May 28.
"With each of them, the president will discuss ways the United States can strengthen and deepen our partnerships, as well as the steps all parties should take to help achieve peace between Israelis and Palestinians and between Israel and the Arab states," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said in a statement.
