Belgian Prime Minister’s Mission to Middle East: Priorities, Actions, and Two-State Solution

2023-11-22 15:03:03

More politically this time, Prime Minister Alexander De Croo will go to Rafah (on the border between Gaza and Egypt) after his visit to Tel Aviv and the Palestinian territories, which he will start this evening. For Ludivine Dedonder, it is about sending a clear message. According to her, the priorities are the release of the hostages, a ceasefire and respect for international law. “That means protecting the civilian population. We know that there are a lot of emotions on both sides, there is a lot of suffering on both sides. The civilian population, generally speaking, is the first victim. And we must do everything to spare it.” wishes the Tournaisienne. The minister, like her party, is calling for a two-state solution to end the conflict. This is, for our speaker, “the best guarantee of stability for the region, including for Israel”. Note that opinions are not as clear-cut for all parties in the federal majority (notably among the Liberals). The message sent by the government should be clearer following a meeting which will take place today.
