Israel-Palestinian conflict: Summit warns against unilateral actions

Representatives of nations at a conference aimed at kick-starting peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians have warned that neither side should take unilateral actions.
In a statement, delegates at the summit in Paris also restated their commitment to the two-state solution.
But they shied away from criticising President-elect Donald Trump’s suggested US embassy move to Jerusalem.
Palestinians welcomed the conference, but Israel called it “rigged”.
Neither side was invited to participate in the day-long summit, which was attended by 70 nations, but they were were invited to hear the conclusions.
This led the UK government to question how effective the conference, which it decided to attend in “an observer status”, could be in solving the conflict.
