<\/strong>Saudi + France lead peace drive:<\/strong> The Kingdom and France co-hosted a UN ministerial conference in New York on Monday to rally international support for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestanian conflict, the Saudi Gazette<\/a> reported. The meeting \u2014 backed by 125 countries including 50 ministries \u2014 aimed to map out steps toward the creation of a Palestinian state and a long-term resolution to the conflict, despite the absence of Israel and the US.<\/p>\n

Actionable blueprint: <\/strong>The conference put forth a 15-months roadmap to a sovereign and viable Palestinian state, including establishing a transitional government in Gaza under the Palestinian Authority\u2019s (PA) supervision, full unification of Gaza and the West Bank, and a public Israeli commitment to the two-state solution. Services provided for Palestinian refugees by UNRWA will be handed out to the PA after a just resolution to the refugee crises.<\/p>\n

Under the plan<\/strong>, Hamas will hand out all captives to Israel and its arms to the PA<\/a>, effectively giving up Gaza rule, in accordance with a \u201cone authority, one weapon\u201d policy. The plan also pushes for the adoption of the Arab-led Gaza reconstruction plan, denouncing the use of starvation as a method of warfare by Israel.<\/p>\n

The Kingdom\u2019s position remains unchanged<\/strong>: Saudi won\u2019t normalize ties with Israel without the establishment of a Palestinian state, Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan stated during the conference (watch, runtime: 8:30<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Train of recognition on the move: <\/strong>Just days after France announced<\/a> it will formally recognize Palestine at the UN General Assembly on 21 September, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced a similar move if Israel fails to take \u201csubstantive\u201d steps to end the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza (watch, runtime: 1:27<\/a>).<\/p>\n

ALSO- <\/strong>Interior Ministry Prince Abdulaziz bin Saud met with his French counterpart Bruno Retailleau in Paris, where the two signed a document to expand security cooperation between their ministries, Saudi Gazette<\/a> reports. The agreement covers areas such as fighting organized crime, drug trafficking, and money laundering, and aims to boost technical cooperation.<\/p>\n
