EU's Top Diplomat: Palestinian State May Need to Be Imposed on Israel from Outside
(Times of Israel) Jacob Magid - EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell suggested on Friday that the creation of a Palestinian state might need to "be imposed from the outside," without Israel's agreement. While some international actors believe the recent violence only underlines the need for a peace deal, Israeli leaders argue the Oct. 7 attack highlighted the extreme danger of an autonomous Palestinian entity near its population centers. Amid soaring support for Hamas among Palestinians in the wake of the atrocities, there appears to be little appetite in the Israeli public for peace efforts.
