MIDEAST: SUPPORT ABBAS. WE ASK ISRAEL TO DO MORE, FRATTINI
(ANSAmed) - MARRAKECH - ''We must strongly
support Mahmoud Abbas'' (Abu Mazen) because we cannot think
''that the frustration and humiliation prevail in the
Palestinian population, because this would open murky
scenarios''. So said Foreign Minister, Franco Frattini, speaking
in Marrakech after a bilateral meeting with USA secretary of
state Hillary Clinton. Frattini added that Italy is a friend to
Israel, ''but this does not prevent us from asking them to do
more'', he stressed. (ANSAmed).
