Germany to back Saudi-France-led two-state solution to Israel-Palestine conflict: Bloomberg News
- On Thursday, Germany stated it backs a UN initiative promoting peaceful coexistence between Israel and Palestine through the establishment of two separate states but does not currently consider it appropriate to officially recognize a Palestinian state.
- This stance aligns with the United States' firm rejection of recognizing Palestinian statehood, highlighted by a recent statement from the US Secretary of State cautioning that such recognition would lead to increased complications.
- Germany supports a two-state solution envisioning peaceful coexistence between Israel and a Palestinian state established on territories occupied since 1967, with the Gaza Strip and West Bank connected via a passage crossing Israeli territory.
- Several nations, including Britain, France, Canada, Australia, and Belgium, have announced their intention to acknowledge a Palestinian state during the upcoming session of the United Nations General Assembly this month, though the UK might postpone its decision if Israel takes measures to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza and commits to a lasting peace initiative.
- Germany's support for the resolution maintains the status quo under international law and suggests it will continue to seek negotiations rather than symbolic recognition of Palestinian statehood at this time.
