JERUSALEM —
Israel may boycott two upcoming rounds of Middle East peace talks over its objections to sitting down with Palestinians from Jerusalem or from abroad, state television reported Thursday.
It would be the Jewish state’s first boycott of Middle East peace talks since they began in Madrid last October.
The planned talks on the issues of Palestinian refugees and economic development are expected to convene next month in Canada and Belgium.
