BEIJING,
Jan. 26 -- US Assistant Secretary of State, William Burns, is in Cairo to push
the Middle East peace process.
Burns told Egyptian Foreign Minister, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, the US is encouraged by Palestinian efforts to restore calm and Israel's response to meet quiet with quiet. He called it the most promising moment for
progress between Palestinians and Israelis seen in several years. Burns is also
due to meet with President Hosni Mubarak later today. Egypt, a key regional
mediator, is the first stop of Burns' Mideast visit.
