president Biden supports two-state solution
Israel & Palestine
The Biden Administration showed and reassured the world of its stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by supporting the two-state solution. The two-state solution is the policy in which the current Israel and Palestine lands would be converted to a land of Jews and Palestinians living side-by-side.
Biden stated, "from the start of my Administration, we have worked with partners to promote this more hopeful vision of a region at peace, including between Israelis and Palestinians. We aim to continue this important work with Israel’s new government under Prime Minister Netanyahu’s leadership." Biden has also contacted President Mohammad Abbas and re-stated its support for the two-state solution but warned that "there should be momentum from Israeli progress in integrating into the region."
While the negotiations between the Israeli and Palestinian governments are stalemate, the peace process is yet to be seen as unachievable.
