US to ‘evaluate’ stance after Netanyahu rules out Palestine
State Department spokesman Jen Psaki says that Netanyahu’s comments on a Palestinian state mean that “the US is in a position going forward in which we will be evaluating our approach to achieving a two-state solution.”
She also did not rule out rescinding its UN Security Council veto against anti-Israel resolutions.
“The fact that (Netanyahu) has changed his opinion certainly
has an impact,” Psaki adds.
Psaki says the US and Israel will continue their close military, intelligence and security cooperation.
She adds that “we don’t think that his win has impacted the Iran negotiations or will.”
