BAN KI-MOON CALLING FOR MIDDLE EAST QUARTET MEETING SOON

Asked about the planned tripartite meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, the Spokeswoman said that the Secretary-General had been informed about that initiative by talking to Rice before her trip to the Middle East.
She added that the Secretary-General still insists on the need for a meeting of the principals of the Middle East Quartet, probably in early February.
She noted, in response to a question, that the Secretary-General had tried to schedule such a meeting in Paris, but there had been scheduling problems, and arrangements were being sought to bring all the Quartet principals together as soon as possible.
