But Egyptian Foreign Minister Amr Moussa said on Tuesday the two leaders will discuss the latest developments of the Middle East peace process, especially the negotiations on the Palestinian track. Arafat was expected to brief Mubarak on his ongoing Arab and international tour to rally support for the Palestinians' position on the peace talks with Israel, in particular on Jerusalem, Moussa said.
