Following a statement by Norway, Ireland and Spain that they prepare to acknowledge Palestine as an independent state, EU diplomacy chief Josep Borrell continues to speak up in favour of a two-state service in the Middle East.
“I bear in mind these days’s statement by 2 EU Member States -Ireland and Spain – and by Norway on the acknowledgment of the State of Palestine,” he composed in a post on the social networks platform X.
“Within the structure of the Common Foreign and Security Policy, I will non-stop deal with all Member States to promote a typical EU position based upon a 2-state service,” he included.
A two-state service describes an independent Palestinian state that exists in harmony side by side with Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposes a two-state service, as does the Palestinian Islamist Hamas motion.
