US Secretary of State Antony Blinken promises to 'oppose any acts that undermine the prospects of a two-state solution' ahead of Israeli PM Netanyahu's return to power
Secretary of State Antony Blinken warns Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's incoming government that Washington will work to keep a"horizon of hope" for a Palestinian state.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has promised to counter Israeli settlements or annexation in the occupied West Bank, but noted Washington would judge the new government under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by actions and not personalities. "We will gauge the government by the policies it pursues rather than individual personalities," Blinken said.
"We will also continue to unequivocally oppose any acts that undermine the prospects of a two-state solution including but not limited to settlement expansion, moves toward annexation of the West Bank, disruption to the historic status quo of holy sites, demolitions and evictions and incitement to violence," Blinken said.
