EU document calls to ‘end occupation that started in 1967’
“The EU is united in its commitment to achieving a two-state solution – based on parameters set out in the Council Conclusions of July 2014 – that meets Israeli and Palestinian security needs and Palestinian aspirations for statehood and sovereignty,” the document published by the union this evening states.
It calls to “end the occupation that began in 1967, and resolve all permanent status issues in order to end the conflict.”
Israel has occupied the West Bank, previously held by Jordan, since the 1967 Six Day War.
