In response to a question, Safadi noted that Israel is undermining the two-state solution by building settlements, confiscating land, and strangling the Palestinian economy. “These are illegal actions that were taking place long before October 7, 2024 saw the largest land grab in 30 years, and last year broke the record in the number of settlement expansions we see.”
Safadi reiterated that the two-state solution is the only path to a just and lasting peace, saying, “There is simply no alternative; the only alternative is more conflicts, because if it is not the two-state solution, it will be apartheid, because Israel will not grant 5 million Palestinians living under occupation in the West Bank and Gaza their rights, so the two-state solution is the solution that will guarantee peace and security for the two peoples and the region, or the continuation of the same thing with continued occupation, and therefore, if you kill the two-state solution, you are moving towards an apartheid reality that is ugly and le
ads only to more war and conflict.”
Safadi held bilateral talks with EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell, Slovenian Foreign Minister Tanya Fayon, Montenegrin Deputy Prime Minister for International Relations and Foreign Minister Ervin Ibrahimovic, José Manuel Albares, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, European Union, and Cooperation of Spain, and Bahraini Foreign Minister Abdullatif bin Rashid Al-Zayani on developments in the region, efforts to stop the Israeli aggression against Gaza and Lebanon, the dangerous escalation in the West Bank, and ensuring the protection of civilians.
