(MENAFN) Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel will talk about the stalled Middle East peace process in her visit to Israel during the weekend, her spokesperson stated on Friday, Oct. 8.
Addressing a news symposium in Berlin, Steffen Seibert noted: “the subject of Palestine, the subject of the peace process, the subject of the negotiated two-state solution, of which, however, nothing is to be seen at the moment, that always travels with us because it is one of the important subjects alongside bilateral relations.”
“This means that the chancellor will also express her conviction on this subject in talks with the Israeli interlocutors,” Seibert further said.
Merkel is set to convene with Israeli Premier Naftali Bennett, President Isaac Herzog, and Foreign Minister Jair Lapid for discussions in Jerusalem on Sunday. The German leader will also convene with the Israeli cabinet members in her Oct. 9-11 visit.
