JERUSALEM: Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is said to have secretly met a senior Saudi Arabian official, possibly King Abdullah himself, 10 days ago, and discussed Iran's nuclear programme as well as peace between Israel and Palestine, a media report here said.

Israel's largest circulated daily Yediot Ahronoth quoted unnamed officials to have said about such a meeting at an undisclosed location.

According to the report, the talks were held due to Saudi Arabia's realisation that Iran, which has an ambitious nuclear programme and funds the Hezbollah, was capable of destabilising the Middle East.

The secret talks focused on Iran's nuclear programme as well as the Saudi Arabia peace initiative, which was adopted by the Arab League in 2002 with Israel.

The guidelines were the basis for a unity government that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas was trying to forge.

The daily had also reported last week that Jerusalem and Riyadh had been holding secret talks since fighting erupted in July between Israel and Hezbollah.

On whether secret talks were going on with Saudi Arabia, a spokeswoman for Olmert said, "I don't know about it. I know nothing."

Cabinet minister Gideon Ezra told Israel Radio that the only information he had about any such talks came from the newspaper report.
