We’re determined to use any pause to continue to pave a diplomatic path forward to a just and lasting peace and security for the region. That is the best way to ensure that October 7th and the tragic loss of life by Israelis and Palestinians is not repeated. —...

@SecBlinken You finally included Palestinians, but too late. You already killed 12,000 children.

@SecBlinken Sorry, but I'm going to correct you. It is not October 7, 2023, it has been since 1948.

@SecBlinken You're funding a potential genocide and a confirmed ethnic cleansing @SecBlinken. Israel has made no effort to comply with the ICJ orders, and yet your funding and military aid continue to flow.

A two-state solution is the only path to lasting peace and security for Palestinians and Israelis alike. Security cannot be achieved by an indefinite and humiliating occupation that denies security and sovereignty to the Palestinian people. Yvette Cooper in the UNSC.

Killing thousands of innocent civilians and cutting off water and fuel to millions of people is not the way to achieve safety and security for both Israelis and Palestinians. An immediate cessation of hostilities is needed to bring the hostages home and negotiate a path forward.

NEW: Antony Blinken revealed to the NYT that he was set to meet with Israel and Saudi Arabia on October 10th to discuss a path toward a Palestinian state, but Hamas' October 7th attack derailed the meeting. Hamas only hurts Palestinians—hijacking their rights, oppressing and killing them, and destroying their hopes for self-determination. Supporting Hamas is supporting the destruction of Palestinian rights and aspirations.

I was honoured to meet a parliamentary delegation led by Yachad UK at the start of this week, to share my personal story of loss from October 7th. I must say I never expected to hear our conversation echoed in the British parliament so eloquently by Kit Malthouse MP who rightly says in a speech this week “…this conflict is making things worse, not better, and the security of the Palestinians is required for the security of Israel into the future.” I am so grateful for your solidarity and for those who came to hear from Israelis and Palestinians, and use their platforms to fight for peace. This work is so incredibly important.

"If Putin wins in Ukraine, there is real risk that his aggression will not end there. Our support is not charity. It is an investment in our security," - NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg. "The only way to reach a just and lasting solution is to convince President Putin that they will not win on the battlefield," Jens Stoltenberg continued. "And the only way to ensure that President Putin realises that he is not winning on the battlefield is to continue to support Ukraine."

This is the moment to reaffirm our hope for, and contributions to, a two-state solution -- the only sustainable path to peace & security for Israelis, Palestinians & the wider region. ‌ The United Nations is totally committed to supporting a pathway to peace, based on an end to the occupation & the establishment of a fully independent, democratic, viable, contiguous & sovereign Palestinian State, with Gaza as an integral part.

Ukraine continues to do everything in its power to ensure that this war has the prospect of a diplomatic resolution. One of the key claims made by Ukraine’s opponents and by those who trust dubious sources is that we in Ukraine supposedly want the war to continue. Your task is to consistently, persuasively, and credibly reject this accusation. It is Ukraine that wants peace. Ukraine has never wanted this war – not for a single day. It is Russia that is doing everything possible to prolong the war and inflict as much damage on human life as it can. We are working toward diplomacy. All leaders who can help know that we are ready for every substantive format. Putin is not ready. And that is precisely the problem. And for there to be a diplomatic path, there must be no obstacles to it in any influential capital in the world. When Moscow does not want peace, Washington and Beijing can make it want peace. And we are doing everything possible to ensure that the capitals of Europe, which Russia does not particularly want to take into account, reach a level where Russia can no longer ignore Europe. This is one of the key objectives of our security and political cooperation with our European partners. From an address at the meeting of heads of Ukraine’s foreign diplomatic missions. (6/7)
