Guterres Says Two-State Solution Is Only Practical Path to End Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has reaffirmed that a two-state solution remains the only practical route to ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

His remarks underscored the need for a political settlement based on two states, placing that framework at the centre of efforts to resolve the conflict.

The two-state approach envisages Israel and a Palestinian state existing alongside one another, with each people exercising national self-determination.

Guterres’s statement reaffirmed the UN’s longstanding support for that approach as the basis for a lasting resolution.
