Eight European Union member states on Tuesday warned that US President Donald Trump’s so-called “Deal of the Century” would fail unless it is based on the internationally agreed parameters for a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian Arab conflict.
The statement by France, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany and Italy followed a UN Security Council meeting on the Middle East in which US Ambassador Nikki Haley discussed the peace plan being prepared by the Trump administration.
“We, the European Union members of the Council, would like to reiterate once more and emphasize the EU’s strong continued commitment to the internationally agreed parameters for a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, based on international law, relevant UN resolutions and previous agreements,” said the ambassadors from the eight countries.
Any peace plan that fails to recognize these internationally agreed parameters would risk being condemned to failure, said the statement.
“The EU is truly convinced that the achievement of a two-state solution based on the 1967 borders with Jerusalem as the capital of both States, that meets Israeli and Palestinian security needs and Palestinian aspirations for statehood and sovereignty, ends the occupation and resolves all final status issues, in accordance with Security Council Resolution 2334 and previous agreements, is the only viable and realistic way to end the conflict and to achieve just and lasting peace,” it continued.
It added that the EU “will continue to work towards that end with both parties, and its regional and international partners”, and called for restoring “a political horizon” on this issue.

The EU member states are speaking from personal experience. They tried to coexist with the Muslims, and the Arabs in particular, within their own borders, and have come to realize that unless those elements are kept outside the European states, a disastrous situation is inevitable. I suggest that France and Germany should designate specific areas for their Muslims, and grant them independence, with mutually recognized borders, and peace and security for all parties.
What a JOKE!!
Let me breat it to them, NO PEACE DEAL WILL WORK with Palestinian terrorists!
Un with all due respect, go make peace in the Middle East ;in Syria, in Iraq ,Egypt , Lebanon etc and leave israel alone!
Grime in the UN is dangerous.
Victory over bullies. A spoken burial of the guy who slew Goliath. Mix it up grand. Price of slingshot thirty teeth. They want Israel to shut up.
Citizen in. The right way just daven. King do rest.
Well it graves me. Drama for the bed of a crotched society.
??????????????
Matzav, why do you continue to post this gibberish?
When the EU realize that the Palestinians dont want a two state solution, they will change their ideas.
The EU itself has begun to fail. People in EU countries other than maybe the ruling elites see it clearly.
