French President Emmanuel Macron says he spoke with Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and that the two leaders condemn the resumption of Israeli strikes in Gaza.
Macron says they will co-chair a conference on a two-state solution, aimed at “helping revive a political perspective for both Israelis and Palestinians.”
Macron also says he welcome the crown prince’s Jeddah initiative, which enables the start of peace negotiations in Ukraine.
