Middle East visits

Asked to clarify if Mrs. Beckett was going to the Middle East with Chancellor Merkel, the PMOS said: no. The Foreign Secretary would see Prime Minister Olmert and the Israeli Foreign Minister, as well as President Abbas.

Put that on "Newsbeat", it had been implied that the Prime Minister would visit the region soon, the PMOS replied that after the last visit, we had said that it was possible that the Prime Minister would return in the New Year. The Prime Minister remained intensely interested in the area and certainly very heavily engaged in trying to push it forward.
