BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Israel's Army Radio quoted sources who said that President Mahmoud Abbas and would meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in two weeks in Paris.

The purpose of the meet would be determined by the decision of the Arab League later this week, the source said, though analysts expect the Arab Peace Initiative Follow-up Committee to agree with the PLO and give Abbas the mandate to walk away from talks if Israel does not agree to a settlement construction freeze.

Army Radio said the informed source indicated the sit-down between the two leaders would be an attempt to push the Palestinian-Israeli negotiations forward.
