‘Stop fighting, start talking,’ says UN’s Ban
“Too many Palestinians and Israeli mothers are burying their children,” continues Ban Ki-moon in his joint press conference with Netanyahu. “We owe it to them to intensify our efforts to find a solution.”
“My message is the same. Stop fighting, start talking and take on the root causes of the conflict so we are not at the same situation in another six months or a year. We must address these underlying issues, including occupation… so people do not feel they have to resort to violence.”
“Military actions will not increase Israel’s stability in the longer term.”
