This Week: On Hillary Clinton's Agenda

It would be nice if this indicates that Mme. Secretary, who has worked tirelessly through three solid weeks, two "on the road" as it were, could remain in New York for the weekend after this meeting. The past two weekends were all work for her. It is time for a little R'n'R!

From today's press briefing:

Philip J. Crowley
Assistant Secretary
Daily Press Briefing
Washington, DC
November 8, 2010

MR. CROWLEY:...She will do a number of things this week focused on Middle East peace. On Wednesday, she will hold a video conference with Palestinian Prime Minister Fayyad. She will also meet with Egyptian Foreign Minister Aboul Gheit. And on Thursday, in New York, she will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. The timing on the meeting Thursday is still a little bit up in the air, but we’ll have more to say about that tomorrow, I expect.

QUESTION: What location?

MR. CROWLEY: New York. Again, more details to follow. But that’s what I can tell you there.
