Cairo ? Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said Sunday he will meet Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to urge the resumption of negotiations on an internationally backed peace plan.

At a news conference with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, Olmert said he would insist that the Palestinians carry out their commitments under the U.S.-supported plan, known as the “road map.” Those include dismantling violent groups.

Abbas, a moderate, has tried to control militants through negotiations, but the Hamas militant group’s victory in parliamentary elections and its subsequent formation of a government have undermined his efforts.

Olmert did not give a date for his meeting with Abbas, which would be the first summit meeting between Israeli and Palestinian leaders since February 2005.
