Photo: Reuters, edited by Tal ReznikAfter the US government's peace plan was unveiled, mixed reactions were reported tonight (Tuesday). The EU has reinforced the two-state idea, arguing that this is the only way to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. "The EU is ready to work towards a significant resumption of resolving all the issues at stake and achieving a just long-term peace," it said. "The Union urges both sides to present a sincere commitment to resolving both states."
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson also backed the century deal. Speaking to US President Donald Trump, he said the deal "could be a positive step for peace between Israel and the Palestinians."
