KING ABDULLAH/MID-EASTBack
[Published: Monday May 11 2009]

King Abdullah in Mid-East warning

Amman, 11 May -(ANA)-King Abdullah of Jordan has warned that failure to reach an agreement for peace in the Middle East will result in a new conflict within 12-18 months.

In comments to the UK newspaper The Times, he said the US was finalising an ambitious "57-state solution" for peace that he is helping to prepare.

The king said the plan would include proposals to settle Israel's disputes with Syria and Lebanon.

His comments came ahead of Middle East debate at the UN Security Council.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is due to visit the White House next week, and Palestinian and Egyptian leaders have been invited to separate meetings in Washington.

In early June, President Barack Obama is to give a major speech on US relations with the Muslim world in Egypt. (ANA)
