Mr. Patrick Costello:

If we are going to accept the two-state solution then we need two states. Therefore, we need to look at settlement building and to recognise the Palestinian State. Also, if one looks at our experience in Northern Ireland, we need an honest broker to work between them. The European Union, Ireland or another country like Brazil that does not have skin in the game and is neutral could provide proper mediation. Those are the kinds of things that we as a nation and the Government can ask and push for at European and UN levels and internationally. They are the sorts of things that we need to do to get both sides together.
