• Borrell leads EU call to revive Middle East peace process
• EU ministers emphasize political track for Middle East peace
• Latvia’s FM supports two-state solution for Palestine

On Monday, Josep Borrell, the European Union‘s top diplomat, spearheaded calls to revive the Middle East peace process amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, which has now entered its third week.

During a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Luxembourg, Borrell emphasized that any move toward de-escalation should encompass efforts to reinvigorate the political negotiations.

Here’s what others said:

Latvia’s foreign minister Krisjanis Karins: The bloc needs to “encourage talks” and “work harder towards the two-state solution,” he said. “If the Palestinians had a clear state, I think that that would help also to alleviate some of the pressure — and maybe a great part of the pressure — which has been building up there for years and years.”

Ireland’s Minister for Foreign Affairs Micheál Martin: “We can’t lose sight of the need to get this on to the political track as well, to get an overall resolution.” he said.

Slovenia’s Foreign Minister Tanja Fajon: The country supports every effort that works toward “a tangible peace process that is based on the two-state solution,” she said.
