The autonomy negotiations resume on the working group level in Cairo tomorrow with the three teams still attempting to place the powers and responsibilities of the projected autonomy into agreed categories.
The Israeli team, under Interior Ministry director general Haim Kubersky, will fly to Cairo tomorrow morning, where the talks will be held at the Meno House Hotel, near the Pyramids. Next week, the talks will transfer to the Laromme Hotel in Tel Aviv, in keeping with the recent resolve of the autonomy plenum that the working groups meet “on an accelerated and intensified schedule.”
The climax of this stepped-up activity will come on Feb. 26, in London, when the top three negotiators, U.S. envoy Sol Linowitz, Egyptian Prime Minister Mustapha Khalil and Israeli Interior Minister Yosef Burg will meet.
