Indonesia Condemns Israeli Parliament Decision to Reject Palestinian State

Jakarta, MINA – Indonesia strongly condemns the resolution adopted by the Israeli parliament rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state and explicitly undermining the two-state solution.

“The two-state solution remains the only path to peace in Palestine and the region, and Indonesia remains committed to promoting its implementation,” said the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a press release on Thursday.

The Israeli parliament, known as the Knesset, passed a bill on Thursday that rejected the establishment of a Palestinian state.

The bill, approved by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, received 68 votes in favor and was rejected by nine parliament members.
