US President Joe Biden says the plan he is pushing for the post-war management of Gaza will begin a process leading to a two-state solution with Arab nations helping secure the Strip during a transitional period.
“There’s no ultimate answer other than a two-state solution,” Biden says during a press conference.
“What was able to be done in terms of the plan I put together was that there would be a process for a two-state solution, and we get the Arab nations to — from Egypt all the way to Saudi Arabia — to be in a position where they would cooperate in the transition, so that they can keep the peace in Gaza without Israeli forces staying in Gaza,” the president says.
“The question that has been from the beginning [is], what’s the day after in Gaza? And the day after in Gaza has to be… no occupation by Israel of the Gaza Strip as well as the ability for us to access, get in and out as rapidly as you can all that’s needed there,” he says, apparently referring to a freer flow of humanitarian assistance into the Strip.
