Western officials say 21-point document given during meeting with Palestinians dealt with general principles of final agreement.
The 21-point document Israel gave the Palestinians in Amman this week dealt with general principles of what will be needed to reach a final agreement, not with detailed Israeli proposals, Western diplomatic officials said on Thursday.
The document was presented on Tuesday to Palestinian Authority negotiator Saeb Erekat by Yitzhak Molcho, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s chief negotiator.
Molcho was accompanied at the meeting by Daniel Taub, Israel’s ambassador to London, who was involved in the talks with the Palestinians in August to September 2010, and Netanyahu’s communications director, Yoaz Hendel.
The officials said the topics on the list are among the issues expected to be discussed at a follow-up meeting in Amman on Monday.
