Speaking to ANI at the UN Headquarters in New York, Dujarric said, 'The two-state solution, a meeting scheduled to take place later today, Monday, is very important for the General Assembly. We believe that the two-state solution is the only solution that can be found to the challenges that we currently see between Israel and Palestine.' The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed the decision of Canada, the UK and Australia to recognise the Palestinian State. The Palestinian MFA considers it a protection of the two-state solution aimed at achieving peace. 'The Palestinian Authority is part of the problem and not part of the solution,' Israel said, as quoted by The Times of Israel.
