MOSCOW, Russia — Russia still believes that a two-state solution is the only way to settle the conflict in the Middle East, the Kremlin says, after it was asked about a decision by some Western countries to recognize a Palestinian state.

“We remain committed to the fundamental resolutions of the UN Security Council and remain committed to the international position on the possibility of resolving the Palestinian-Israeli problem on the basis of a two-state approach,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov tells reporters.

“This remains our approach, and we believe that it is the only possible way to find a solution to this extremely complex, long-standing conflict, which is now perhaps at its most acute and tragic stage in its entire history.”
