Abbas Visits White House as Obama Pushes to Extend Talks
Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas on Monday
will meet with U.S. president Barack Obama, who is expected to press
him to sign on to a framework agreement as a basis for continuing peace
talks with Israel beyond the current April 29 deadline. Abbas is expected to resist some articles of the framework, including recognition of Israel as a Jewish state (Haaretz). - from CFR Daily Brief
