I do not know who writes the Minister's statements but surely he does not believe that. Surely he does not believe that, as the two-state solution is non-existent? What happened last week was a deeply incendiary act by Donald Trump and was calculated to cause a reaction in the Middle East. Jerusalem will never be the capital of Israel and should never be formally recognised by the EU. This will only embolden both Donald Trump's reactionary supporters in the United States and the reactionary elements of the Zionist Israel of Netanyahu. This legitimises what Netanyahu wants to do. He has no interest in the two-state solution. That is pie in the sky. It is time for the EU to recognise that there is no way to have a two state solution. The only solution is one state in which Palestinians, Jews and Christians all live together as much as possible, peacefully.
