Archbishop of Canterbury to meet Palestinian and Israeli leaders

From The BBC-

The Archbishop of Canterbury is to meet Palestinian and Israeli political leaders as part of a 12-day tour of the Holy Land.

His visit comes two weeks before US President Donald Trump is due to arrive in Jerusalem to try to revive the moribund peace process.


However, the Most Reverend Justin Welby indicated there should not be too much significance read into the timing.


"I come to pray, to share, to listen, to encourage," he told the BBC.


"It would be very presumptuous to go further. You cannot, in a place as complicated as this, go and lecture people."
