ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN TALKS, EGYPT AND SYRIA ON AGENDA AS UN CHIEF
ARRIVES IN MIDDLE EASTNew York, Aug 15 2013 1:00PMThe deadly violence
in Egypt, the ongoing Syria crisis and the Israeli-Palestinian peace
process were on Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's agenda as he arrived
today in the Middle East, where he held talks with leaders in Jordan
as well as with Palestinian officials in Ramallah, before heading to
Israel.

In Jordan, Mr. Ban expressed his gratitude to the Government and
people of the country for their generosity in hosting over half a
million Syrian refugees at a time when its ability to absorb more
people was overstretched.

Both the Secretary-General and King Abdullah recognized that it was
critical for the international community to share the burden that
Jordan is carrying, according to a
<"http://www.un.org/sg/offthecuff/index.asp?nid=2924">read-out of
their meeting in the Red Sea resort of Aqaba.

They also discussed yesterday's violence in Egypt, with Mr. Ban noting
the need to move forward with a political process and genuine
reconciliation in the country.

The efforts by United States Secretary of State John Kerry to resume
negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians were also discussed
in their meeting, as well as in Mr. Ban's
<"http://www.un.org/sg/offthecuff/index.asp?nid=2923">meeting with
Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh. The Secretary-General commended
Jordan's efforts in recent years to get the Israeli-Palestinian
dialogue back on track.

Mr. Ban then travelled to Ramallah in the West Bank, where he held
talks with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and other Palestinian
leaders. While there he also took part in a Model UN event, with a
video link to Gaza. He will attend a similar Israeli event on Friday.

Before leaving Ramallah, the Secretary-General launched a new UN
Development Assistance Framework that outlines how the world body
works with the Palestinian Authority. He also visited the grave of
Yasser Arafat.

From Ramallah, Mr. Ban travels to Jerusalem for meetings with Israeli
leaders later today and tomorrow.Aug 15 2013 1:00PM
