US President Advocates for Two-State Solution, Criticizes Netanyahu's Extreme Policies

On Sunday, US President Joe Biden proclaimed his belief that a two-state solution remains the most viable end to the Israeli-Palestinian dispute. In a strong assertion, he characterized the government under Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as the most radical Israel has seen since the era of Golda Meir.

During a CNN interview, Biden expressed concerns over certain Netanyahu cabinet members' stance on Israeli settlements in the West Bank. He criticized their views, describing them as a part of the problem, particularly pointing to those who assert the right to establish settlements wherever they wish.

He added, "We're consistently engaged in dialogue with them, striving to alleviate tensions, and we hope to see Netanyahu move towards a more moderate and transformative path."

In addition to this, Biden underscored the ongoing efforts aimed at establishing a lasting ceasefire in Yemen.

During the interview, the US president commended Saudi Arabia's decision, made ahead of his visit to the Kingdom last summer, to allow unrestricted access to its airspace for all airlines.

Concerning the Ukrainian conflict, Biden asserted that "the time is not right for Ukraine to join NATO at this moment", stressing that "Ukraine is not yet prepared for NATO membership".

In his concluding remarks, Biden reaffirmed that the United States, along with its allies, would persist in supplying Ukraine with the necessary armaments to bring an end to the conflict with Russia.
