The Quartet of Middle East peace mediators, which held joint talks with both sides on Sunday in Egypt, voiced support for the process and suggested the spring of 2009 could be an "appropriate time" for an international peace meeting in Moscow. The talks launched by President George W. Bush nearly a year ago at a conference in Annapolis, Maryland have been hobbled from the start by violence and bitter disputes over Jewish settlement building and the future of Jerusalem. "They asked that the international community support the parties' sustained efforts in the framework of the Annapolis process," the Quartet said in a statement read by U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon. "The Quartet emphasized the importance of continuity of the peace process," he said. SIDE BY SIDE Sitting side by side at a round table, Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas briefed ministers from the Quartet, which groups the European Union, Russia, the United Nations and the United States. The White House this week conceded Bush was unlikely to achieve his goal of securing a peace deal to end the six-decade conflict before he leaves office in January. Bush had hoped an agreement would improve a legacy burdened by the war in Iraq. But U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told reporters after the talks: "What we heard today from the parties, which is the most important element of this, is that they believe in the Annapolis process." Livni, speaking to Israel Radio before leaving for Egypt, reaffirmed Israel's commitment to the Annapolis process. "We are intentionally operating quietly and responsibly," she said, after months of negotiations with the Palestinians that have yielded few signs of progress. "If I thought hope was gone, I would not be attending today." DEAL REMOTE While the Israeli-Palestinian peace talks are expected to continue next year, political uncertainty in Israel and Barack Obama's victory in the presidential election leave the Bush administration with limited influence in its waning days. The chances of a deal this year were always remote and appeared to evaporate entirely when Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert announced his decision to resign because of a corruption scandal, triggering plans for a February 10 election in Israel. Rice, wrapping up what is likely to be her last visit to the region before stepping down, joined Ban Ki-moon, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and European Union foreign policy Chief Javier Solana at the meeting.
