Key points

  • The European Union should transition from an observer to a leading political actor in the Middle East peace process.
  • Strong support is reiterated for a two-state solution based on the 1967 borders with Jerusalem as a shared capital.
  • The expansion of illegal settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem must be halted as it undermines peace efforts.
  • There is an urgent need to end the blockade of the Gaza Strip and prioritize its reconstruction.
