On the ground, the two-state solution is more remote than ever. France and Saudi Arabia have led the initiative, lobbying international leaders since last year and organizing a conference on the two-state solution at U.N. headquarters this summer. France and others have said they want to sideline Hamas, which rejects the two-state solution. Members of his governing coalition have said Israel should annex the occupied West Bank in response. “The attitude of your government, especially of some ministers, is to destroy the possibility of a two-state solution,” Macron said in an interview aired Thursday on Israeli television.
