Biden: Palestinian people deserve their own state

American leader Joe Biden believes that the Palestinian people deserve their own state. About it became known on Saturday, November 18, from an article by the President of the United States for The Washington Post.

“The Palestinian people deserve their own state and a future free from Hamas,” Biden wrote.

The two-state solution will be the path to peace, the article says. Achieving this will require commitment from the Israelis and Palestinians, as well as from the United States and other states. “This work must begin now,” writes the US President.

Biden stressed that Gaza must no longer be used as a platform for terrorism. In his opinion, there should be no forced displacement of residents from the enclave, re-occupation, siege, blockade or reduction of territory. “The voices of the Palestinian people and their aspirations must be at the center of post-crisis governance in Gaza,” he said.

The Gaza Strip and the West Bank, writes Joe Biden, should be controlled by the Palestinian National Authority.

“There is no place for Hamas violence and hatred in this future. I believe that attempting to destroy hope for that future is one of the reasons Hamas created this crisis,” Biden said in the article.

In October, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that without the creation of Palestine as a sovereign state, it is impossible to resolve the conflict between Israel and Palestine. Then the Russian leader noted that settlement mechanisms had previously been created, but the United States had neglected them in recent years and relied on meeting the material needs of the population living in the Palestinian territories.

The conflict in the Middle East escalated on the morning of October 7 after a large-scale rocket attack from the Gaza Strip on Israel and the infiltration of Hamas fighters into the border areas. In response, the Israel Defense Forces launched Operation Iron Swords in the Gaza Strip.
