Long-term peace is possible in the Middle East only after the establishment of an independent Palestinian state, European Union chief diplomat Josep Borrell said.
"From now on, I will not talk about the peace process, but about the two-state solution proces," Borrell said.
The EU's top diplomat believes that they have to stop talking about the “peace” process, and start talking more concretely about the “two-state solution” process.
Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said there is “no space” for a Palestinian state and rejected the idea of a ceasefire in exchange for the return of hostages held by Hamas.
