- Sánchez believes this is necessary for peace between Israel and Palestine.
- He joins other European leaders in supporting a two-state solution in the Middle East.
- Sánchez's plan was posted on the X platform.
Sánchez joined a chorus of other European leaders and government officials who have expressed their support for a two-state solution in the Middle East as international frustration mounts with Israel’s actions in the Palestinian territories.
Sánchez also posted his plan on the X platform.
Last month, French President Emmanuel Macron stated that France could recognize a Palestinian state without it being "taboo." British Foreign Minister David Cameron also mentioned that the United Kingdom might officially acknowledge a Palestinian state after a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war. Sánchez compared his stance on the conflict in the Gaza Strip to Spain's support for Ukraine after Russia's full-scale invasion more than two years ago.
Russia, and from Israel, for the violence to end, the recognition of two states, and for humanitarian aid to reach Gaza.”
His comments came as aid shipments were headed for Gaza amid the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and a new international willingness to work around Israeli restrictions.
Five months after Hamas militants attacked Israel on Oct. 7, killing about 1,200 people and taking 250 others hostage, Israel’s military has battered the territory, killing more than 30,000 Palestinians, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
