Abbas cancels Jerusalem trip
RAMALLAH, West Bank, Jan 6: Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, a frontrunner for the Jan. 9 presidential election, has cancelled plans for a campaign appearance in Arab East Jerusalem, a Palestinian official said on Thursday.
Mr Abbas called off the Friday tour because he objected to the possibility of being seen with Israeli troops around him, another official said. -Reuters
