U.S. Confirms Kerry Will Meet Abbas in London on Thursday
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will meet Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in London on Thursday, a top U.S. official said, adding the "door remains open" for peace talks.
State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki confirmed Monday that the top U.S. diplomat would meet Abbas for the first time since peace negotiations with Israel collapsed last month.
"While the door remains open to a peace process, the purpose of the meeting is to discuss our ongoing relationship with the Palestinians," she added.
