At some point I’ll decide what I think is right,” Trump told reporters. “But it would be in coordination with other states and other countries.”

King Abdullah II of Jordan has warned that the Middle East is doomed unless there is a peace process leading to a Palestinian state. The king was speaking in an exclusive interview for BBC Panorama, as he prepared to attend a summit in Egypt's Sharm el-Sheikh on President Donald Trump's 20-point peace plan for the region.

Hamas freed the 20 hostages and Israel released some 2,000 Palestinian prisoners as part of a cease-fire. President Trump, in Israel, proclaimed an “end” to the war, but Israel and Hamas have not agreed on next steps in Gaza.

Don’t create another generation of Palestinians who believe that somehow the resistance is the way to peace and security,” Rice said. Palestinians will need to change the way they educate their children,

Dozens of world leaders gathered to rally support for a two-state solution at the U.N. General Assembly after a number of U.S. allies formally recognized Palestine as a state.

During a joint UNGA session chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, more countries formally recognized a Palestinian state. It came about a week after a UN inquiry found that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza.

The remaining 20 hostages still alive were released Monday, alongside nearly 2,000 Palestinian detainees and prisoners.

There has been a recent rush of countries to formally recognise the state of Palestine. Affirming Palestinian sovereignty marks a historic diplomatic milestone, yet the exact layout of its territory, a central requirement under international law, remains fiercely contested from every hilltop in the West Bank to the ruins of Gaza.

Since 1947, all Canadian governments have supported a two-state solution for lasting peace in the Middle East. This policy envisioned the creation of a sovereign, democratic, and viable State of Palestine, building its future side by side with the State of Israel, in peace and security.

The apparently coordinated action comes amid mounting criticism of Israel's assault on Gaza, and its blocking of aid.

Prime Minister Starmer assumes an irresponsible premise that creation of a Palestinian state will bring to an end the Arab-Israeli conflict. This assumption overlooks the reality in the Middle East that it’s not so much want of a Palestinian state,

While there has been a growing international recognition of the state of Palestine, Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have long opposed the idea.
