US EditionUS warns against attending UN conference on Israel-Palestinian two-state solution
- On May 30, 2025, the Trump administration warned governments against attending a UN conference on a two-state solution for Israel and the Palestinians in New York.
- This warning followed a diplomatic demarche sent Tuesday opposing the conference, which France and Saudi Arabia co-host to promote a Palestinian state roadmap.
- The US viewed participation as supporting anti-Israel actions like sanctions, contradicting efforts to end the Gaza war triggered by Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack.
- A US cable stated unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state adds legal obstacles and could support Israel's enemies during the conflict, warning countries against such moves.
- The warning challenges France and Saudi Arabia's diplomacy, risks diplomatic consequences for participants, and underscores US opposition to unilateral Palestinian statehood amid ongoing hostilities.
