Bilateral Relations: Israeli Foreign Minister meets with her Omani counterpart

Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni held talks with her Omani counterpart in Qatar yesterday. Livni, who is paying a rare visit to a Gulf Arab state, gave bin Alawi "an update on the negotiations with the Palestinians" during the meeting in the Qatari capital Doha, another aide told AFP.

The aide, who did not want to be named, said "the second objective of the meeting was to discuss the role of the Arab world in the peace process."

"We do not agree with their (Israelis') opinions" on the peace negotiations, bin Alawi told AFP.

Livni also met Qatar's emir and prime minister.
