Abbas turns to Moscow, dumps US-led peacemaking 
Debka 24-Jan-14 

Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas launched his “diplomatic intifada” against Israel and exit from the Kerry peace initiative Thursday, Jan. 23, from Moscow. His talks with Vladimir Putin and Dmitry Medvedev marked his breakaway from the peace track with Israel, four months before it was due to expire, and signaled his bid to replace it with Russian backing for a Palestinian state.
