Olmert and Abu Mazen may meet with each pther soon, even as early as this Monday, so says the Maan news agency. The two have been exchanging invitations back and forth for weeks now, but still no meeting has been scheduled. Sources close to Abu Mazen confirmed that such a meeting is imminent but refused to state the date in which it is to take place.
It seems that Olmert's and Abu Mazen's seperate meetings with Jordan's king Adbullah may have facilitated the meeting between the Israeli and Palestinian leader.
The two are to discuss the resumption of the peace process, the humanitarian situation in Gaza, the issue of Palestinian prisoners held in Israel, and the continued rocket launches out of Gaza into the Israeli Negev.
Abu Mazen has recently called for early elections (though did not set a date) which prompted severe repudiation by the Hamas government.
