London, UK – The British Foreign Office spokesperson affirmed that the UK will not remain passive while the two-state solution is clearly undermined.
Firm British Stance Against Settlement Expansion
Officials emphasized that actions eroding prospects for an independent Palestinian state cannot be accepted as an unchallengeable fait accompli without decisive action.
This posture coincides with fresh UK measures targeting illegal settlements, addressing concerns over territorial fragmentation that hampers long-term political resolutions.
Egyptian Commendation and Commitment to Political Track
Egypt welcomed the UK’s measures, reiterating that ongoing settlement expansion directly threatens Palestinian territorial integrity and future state viability.
Cairo reaffirmed that lasting peace requires ending the occupation based on 1967 borders, urging international actors to enforce principles preserving Palestinian rights.
