Kerry: Obama Plans to "Listen," Not Present Mideast Peace Plan
(Reuters) Arshad Mohammed - President Barack Obama will not bring a peace plan to Israel next month, Secretary of State John Kerry said on Tuesday. "We're not going to go and sort of plunk a plan down and tell everybody what they have to do," Kerry said. "I want to consult and the president wants to listen." Referring to rising tensions in the West Bank, Kerry said, "We really hope everybody will step back a little and try to find a way to proceed very calmly and very thoughtfully in these next days (and) leave the opportunities for peaceful resolution open."
