Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh and the European Union’s Special Envoy for the Middle East Peace Process Sven Koopmans today discussed at Shtayyeh’s office in Ramallah the latest political developments and ways to protect the two-state solution.
The Prime Minister stressed the importance of the EU playing an active role to protect the two-state solution in light of the systematic Israeli measures destructive to this solution such as the acceleration of settlements and land confiscation, the continued incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Palestinian areas, and the killings, arrests and demolition of homes and facilities.
Shtayyeh called for formulating a road map that puts everyone in front of their responsibilities in order to end the occupation and establish the Palestinian state, and not only talk about economic solutions, stressing that there is no alternative to a serious political horizon.
