U.S. Secretary of State Brinken, who is touring the Middle East, expressed deep concern over the exchange of violence between Israel and Palestine, stressed his strong opposition to the expansion of Jewish settlements, and criticized the hard-line Israeli Netanyahu regime against Palestine. I stuck a nail in it.
Tensions between Israel and Palestine have escalated since late January, with 10 Palestinians killed in Israeli military operations, and seven Israelis killed in shootings by Palestinians at a Jewish house of worship in East Jerusalem. I'm here.
U.S. Secretary of State Brinken, who is visiting the Middle East, held a press conference in Jerusalem on the 31st, expressing deep concern over the exchange of violence, and saying, "The people of Palestine and Israel will enjoy freedom and security equally. Two nations for two peoples is the only way to achieve the goal," he said, reiterating his support for "two-state coexistence" in which Israel and a future Palestinian state coexist.
"The United States will continue to oppose anything that strays from this goal," he said, emphasizing that he strongly opposes the expansion of Jewish settlements by Israel and the deportation of Palestinians.
The Israeli Netanyahu administration, which was inaugurated at the end of last year, is tough on Palestine, including the expansion of Jewish settlements, which violates international law.
