The Middle East is undergoing changes that could represent the last chance for the long-sought goal of a two-state solution to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a UN official said according to AFP.
Sigrid Kaag, the UN envoy for the peace process in the region, also warned against calls for Israel to annex the occupied West Bank.
“The Middle East today is undergoing rapid transformation – its scope and impact remain uncertain, but it also presents a historic opportunity,” Kaag told the UN Security Council.
“The people of the region can emerge from this period with peace, security, and dignity. However, this may be our last chance to achieve the two-state solution,” said Kaag.
