A high-level United Nations conference, co-chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, has convened in New York to revive efforts for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The event, attended by dozens of countries but boycotted by the US and Israel, underscores growing international frustration over stalled peace talks and ongoing violence in Gaza and the West Bank. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and multiple foreign ministers emphasized that a two-state solution is the only viable path to lasting peace, while Saudi Arabia reiterated that normalization with Israel depends on Palestinian statehood. France called on the European Union to increase pressure on Israel to negotiate. The conference highlights deep divisions, with the US dismissing the meeting as unproductive and Israel rejecting the two-state framework.
