GENEVA (Reuters) – France will hold an
international conference in Paris on May 30 in a bid relaunch talks
between Palestinians and Israelis by the end of the year, its foreign
minister said in remarks published on Thursday.
With U.S. efforts to broker a two-state accord in tatters
since April 2014 and Washington focused on a November presidential
election, Paris has lobbied countries to commit to a conference before
then that would set out a framework to get Israelis and Palestinians
back into negotiations.
“There is no other solution to the conflict other than a
two-state solution, Israelis and Palestinians living side by side in
peace and security with Jerusalem a shared capital,” Jean-Marc Ayrault
said in a joint interview with daily newspapers Liberation, the Wall
Street Journal, Al-Quds al-Arabi and Haaretz.
“The two sides are more divided than ever. I’m not naive,
but am acting in good faith. There is no alternative. The other option
is fatalism and I refuse it,” he said.
