Herzog: ‘Clear majority’ in Israel for 2-state solution
As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu prepares for his upcoming meeting with US President Donald Trump, opposition leader Isaac Herzog tells a conference in Jerusalem that there is a “clear majority” in Israel that supports a two-state solution with the Palestinians.
“Regarding Netanyahu’s visit to Washington, I say to President Trump and his administration: There is in the State of Israel a clear majority supporting separation from the Palestinians and the realization of the vision of two states,” Herzog says, according to Army Radio.
His comments earn boos from the audience at the pro-settlement B’Sheva Jerusalem Conference.
