In a move likely to infuriate Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Justice Minister Tzipi Livni on Thursday met with Palestinian Minister of Foreign Affairs Riyad al-Maliki in London, high-ranking Palestinian sources told The Times of Israel Friday.
Livni met with al-Maliki on the sidelines of the Global Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict in London.
Livni and her Palestinian interlocutors have reportedly discussed the recent failure of peace negotiations and the possibility of their renewal, as well as matters such as Israel’s announcement that it will construct 1,500 housing units in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
The justice minister’s meeting with Abbas in London last month was coordinated in advance, and Netanyahu was aware of it.
