Arab leaders: Two-state solution best option in Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Arab leaders from more than 20 countries gathering here in Jordan on Wednesday sent a clear signal to President Donald Trump: The region continues to support a two-state solution for Israelis and Palestinians.

This comes just weeks before Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to travel to Washington to meet with President Trump. It also comes as the White House has hinted that it may abandon America’s long-running support for a two-state solution.

 

The summit’s host, Jordan’s King Abdullah, said that Israeli settlements in the West Bank are an obstacle to peace.

But on other key issues, it is a region deeply divided.

Syria, which has been suspended from the Arab league since the start of its bloody civil war, remains a divisive issue.
