Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov says he will address the United Nations Security Council next week about proposals for “collective efforts” to solve the Middle East crisis.

Lavrov says the solution needs to involve direct talks between the Palestinian and Israeli leaderships and would have to lead to the creation of a Palestinian state, adding that Russia is “interested” in having Israel and Israelis live in security.
