JPost – EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton is set to arrive in Israel on Tuesday for talks, just a day after the EU decided to ratech up sanctions against Iran, and a day before Israeli and Palestinian officials are expected to meet for a fifth time in Amman.
The EU’s decision Monday to embargo Iranian oil and freeze the assets of Iran’s central bank, as well as the Israeli-Palestinian diplomatic process, are expected to be the focus of Ashton’s discussion with Israeli leaders.
