  UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has met with Israeli President Shimon Peres in Jerusalem, issuing another call for peace between the Israelis and Palestinians.
 
  The top UN official says direct negotiations1 remain the single most creditable path towards a solution.
 
  Ban Ki-moon is calling both sides to avoid any action that would risk undermining the negotiations.
 
  "Both sides need to sustain an environment conducive2 for the peace process to move forward. People need to see improvements on the ground, including economic progress for Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza, and ...security for Israelis and Palestinians."
 
  The Israeli and Palestinian sides restarted direct negotiations in total secrecy3 Wednesday in Jerusalem.
 
  Peres says the fact no information from the meeting has been leaked is good news.
 
  "The first meeting between the two parties apparently4 was not too bad. And I do believe that all organization, all of us, should give priorities to this peace. And I do hope that it will be continued. There are difficulties, but to make the future a hopeless future is mistaken, because peace is a real need for both parties. None of us has an alternative."
 
  Peres is calling on the international community to give both sides 9-months to have quiet negotiations.
 
  Ban Ki-moon has also met with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah.
 
  Prior to the talks, a first batch5 of 26 Palestinian prisoners were released by Israel as a goodwill6 gesture.
 
  However, the recent announcement of more settlement construction in the West Bank and East Jerusalem has overshadowed peace talks.
 
  Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.
 
  "Palestinians have shown goodwill to reach peace. I hope Israel can also show their goodwill to stop settlement building and release all the Palestinian prisoners."
 
  Ban Ki-moon says he hopes the peace process would advance smoothly7.
 
  He says the United Nations will spare no effort to try to help contribute to the peace process.
