CAIRO, Egypt –– Secretary of State Colin Powell said Thursday he will meet with Palestinian leader
Yasser Arafat later this week. He also praised the beginning of an Israeli withdrawal from occupied
Palestinian areas, saying he hoped it was "the beginning of the end" of the spiraling violence in the region.

For the first time, Powell said positively that he intends to meet with the Palestinian leader during his
peacekeeping trip, as well as with Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. He said he would talk with both
leaders about a truce and political talks leading to creation of a Palestinian state.

As part of a truce settlement, Powell said, "The United States is prepared to put U.S. observers on the
ground."
