"The hope of creating two states is fading, but we can't let that light go out," Starmer explained.
The only viable solution, according to the British Prime Minister, is tocreate two states\u00A0. According to Starmer,this solution would be the oppositeof whatthebrutal terrorist organization Hamas claims.

The movement has brought about a historic change in UK foreign policy, as several governments argued that recognition should only take place within the framework of a peace process and at the moment of greatest diplomatic impact.
Starmer warned in July that in September London would change its position if Israel did not establish a ceasefire in Gaza and commit itself to a sustainable agreement that would guarantee a two-state solution.
