New York (IINA) – UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process Nickolay Mladenov unveiled a plan by the Quartet to produce a report that would help create a political environment for the Israelis and Palestinians to resume peace negotiations.
Speaking at a press conference here on Wednesday, Mladenov said that the Quartet, in its last meeting in the German city of Munich, decided to compile a report that will examine impediments to a two-state solution and recommend the way forward.
The UN envoy added that the Quartet is seeking inputs from both the Israelis and Palestinians as well as from other stakeholders, including Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia, to produce a good assessment. He expressed hope that the report, to be concluded in a few months, will inform the international opinion and consolidate consensus on a two-state solution as the only viable option.
