EU Parliament calls to expand presence in Middle East


The MEPs called for "lasting peace and security for both Israelis and Palestinians," adding that they "welcome the prospect of a return of the Palestinian Authority to Gaza and express support to the Global Alliance for the Implementation of the two-State Solution." The Global Alliance for the Implementation of the two-State Solution was set up by over 90 states in September 2024, aiming "to work towards the implementation of the Two-State Solution, also by supporting the current diplomatic efforts to reach a permanent cease-fire in Gaza and the release of hostages and detainees, address the humanitarian suffering of the Palestinians in Gaza, and advance an irreversible path of joint efforts and concrete measures in support of enabling and implementing the Two-State Solution with a clear timeline." Her closing remarks discussed how the EU is supporting the PA as the best option to govern the Gaza Strip, and that "It is a question of security of Israel, as well as the rights of Palestinians, that need to be respected."
