Europe should fix itself first: Israeli FM

Israel's foreign minister has told visiting European foreign ministers to solve Europe's problems before taking on the Middle East.
Avigdor Lieberman's remarks came during a visit by Bernard Kouchner of France and Spain's Miguel Angel Moratinos.
Earlier, Kouchner had said that the option of the UN Security Council declaring a Palestinian state could not be ruled out if negotiations failed.
The European ministers are due to meet Palestinian and Jordanian leaders.
They are in the region as part of efforts to save the Middle East peace talks, which are in danger of collapsing.
Palestinian officials say they will pull out of talks if Israel refuses to extend its partial freeze on settlement building in the occupied West Bank.
