Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas told a news conference with French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner that he was confident Kadima Chairwoman Tzipi Livni would continue peace negotiations.
"We feel she may continue in the path towards peace so that the Palestinian state will be established and this will be in the interests of Israel as much as it is an aspiration for the Palestinians," said Abbas.
