Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is calling on Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to meet with him in Beersheba, 30 years after the Begin-Sadat meeting in the southern city, which led to a peace agreement between Israel and Egypt.
"I call on the leaders of the Palestinians and Arab states: Let's meet, let's cooperate. We have the ability to bring many investors. We are exerting efforts to ease restrictions on the Palestinians, but all the efforts can only reach a certain point," the prime minister said at the start of a special cabinet meeting in Beersheba.
