LONDON (AFP) — The son of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was to take part in a two-day seminar with a key adviser to Palestinian Authority president Yasser Arafat and other top officials, beginning in London, a pro-Israel lobbying group said.

"Omri Sharon is here together with Jibril Rajub," Arafat's national security adviser, said David Mencer, the director of Labour Friends of Israel, which works within Britain's governing Labour Party to promote the Jewish state.

The younger Sharon is a member of the Israeli parliament for his father's right-wing Likud party.
