Palestine: Brazil offers to help in peace talks

Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has said he would like to help peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians.

At a meeting in Brasilia with Palestinian Minister of Information and Foreign Affairs Riad Al Malki, Lula said that his administration is also willing to cooperate in the areas of energy, infrastructure and sports with Palestine.

Brazilian Foreign Relations Minister Celso Amorim said that Brazil's involvement in the peace talks may be announced during French President Nicolas Sarkozy and Russian President Dmitri Medvedev's visits to Brazil.

"We believe that countries like Brazil may bring some fresh air to the peace negotiations," he said.
