Event Details

This document appears to be a page from a book proof (published by Oxford University Press in 2014) detailing the history of the Middle East peace process between 2001 and 2003. It describes the failure of the Taba talks, President Bush's 2002 call for Palestinian leadership change, the isolation of Yasser Arafat, and the formation of the 'Middle East Quartet' (UN, US, Russia, EU) initiated by Kofi Annan. It details the creation of the 'Road Map' for peace by US officials William Burns and David Satterfield. The document bears a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp, suggesting it was gathered as evidence, likely in an investigation related to the individuals mentioned or the diplomatic processes involved.
