Lavrov, Palestinian negotiator to discuss UN draft resolution in Moscow

MOSCOW. Dec 22 (Interfax) - Saeb Erekat, the head of the Palestinian delegation to the negotiations with Israel, will meet with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Monday to discuss a UN draft resolution on the timeframe for the creation of the Palestinian state, said Palestinian Ambassador in Moscow Fayed Mustafa.

"The two most important topics for us at the moment are the political resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and our draft UN SC resolution. It is these issues that they will be discussing," the ambassador said.

Mustafa also said that no date has been set for the UN vote on this draft as discussions still continue.

Erekat arrived in Moscow on Sunday.
