EU says Israel, Palestinians should keep talking (AP)

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip ? Visiting EU foreign policy chief has urged Israelis and Palestinians to continue their efforts to resume peace negotiations, even as the Palestinians say the dialogue has run its course.

Catherine Ashton says that "we need to keep talks going and increase the potential of these talks to become genuine negotiations." She is to meet with leaders from both sides on Wednesday.

Through Jordanian mediation, the sides began a low-level dialogue this month hoping to pave the way for full-fledged peace talks.

The Palestinians believe a deadline set by international mediators for submitting border proposals expires Thursday. Israel says meetings should continue.
