Spain’s top diplomat dismissed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s statement that there will never be a Palestinian state, saying Israelis will one day want to live side by side in peace with Palestinians.
Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares said in an interview with The Associated Press on Monday (September 22, 2025) that “a real wave” of countries have recognised the State of Palestine since Spain, Ireland, and Norway did in May 2024 and an overwhelming number support a two-state solution to the nearly 80-year Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
