Hillary Clinton To Visit Egypt Wednesday

CAIRO, Nov 3 (Bernama) -- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is to visit Egypt on Wednesday, to meet President Hosni Mubarak, China's Xinhua news agency reported Tuesday, citing Al-Ahram daily as saying.

Clinton is expected to hold talks with Mubarak on Israeli-Palestinian conflict aiming at relaunching peace negotiations between the two sides.

These talks come after Clinton declared siding with Israel as regards the issue of settlement and the resumption of the peace talks.

On Saturday, Clinton stressed that a full Israeli settlement freeze was at no stage a precondition to the resumption of Israeli- Palestinian negotiations.
