FILE - In this Tuesday, Dec. 31, 2013 file photo, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, center, receives released Palestinian prisoners during a welcome ceremony after their arrival at the Palestinian headquarters in the West Bank city of Ramallah. Israel's foreign minister, Avigdor Lieberman, on Tuesday, April 8, 2014, warned the Palestinians that a planned prisoner release will not happen as long as they pursue what he called a "provocative" bid to join U.N. agencies. The remarks came as the Israeli-Palestinian peace talks have become embroiled in their worst crisis since U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry persuaded the two sides last summer to resume talks for nine months.
