Israel’s Ambassador to Russia Alexander Ben Zvi said that the implementation of the two-state principle in the Middle East is possible by ensuring the full security of the Jewish state. He made advisory statements in his meeting with . TASS.
He reminded that Israel has repeatedly expressed the concept of two states with an independent Palestine and presented various options for its implementation. However, Ben-Zvi said, “No one has offered us a viable option to the forces that want to destroy us.”
The ambassador stated that the establishment of an independent Palestinian state is possible, but there is no threat to Israel.
“Not just an independent existence, but a secure existence. So that our country will not be under threat from anyone. “Then we can talk about something,” he said.
Before that, Jose Manuel Albarez, head of the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs statedThat the conflict in the Middle East should be resolved through the establishment and recognition of an independent Palestinian state.
“The final solution is the establishment of a Palestinian state that will guarantee Israel’s security.” <…> “The proposal of the two states is included in the latest Council decisions and is the position of the EU,” Albarez said.
In early October, Palestinian Hamas forces launched a massive rocket attack on Israel, declaring the start of Operation Al-Aqsa Al-Aqsa Flood. As part of the attack, thousands of militants entered the territory of the Jewish state, seized military equipment and captured more than a hundred people. In response, Israel launched Operation Iron Sword in the Gaza Strip, vowing to destroy Hamas. The actions of the Jewish state led to a blockade of the Palestinian enclave, massive bombings, and demands for the evacuation of more than 1 million people to the south of the region.
