Baroness Ashton is on a regional tour that began in Cairo and also includes Lebanon, Syria and Jordan.

On Wednesday she visited Jerusalem where she met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and held a joint press conference with Minister of Foreign Affairs Avigdor Lieberman.

During the conference, she said she hoped that attempts by US special envoy George Mitchell to launch indirect talks between Israel and the Palestinians would succeed.

Baroness Ashton has been criticised as too inexperienced for the new job of EU High Representative, a post created by the EU's Lisbon Treaty.
