Israel-Hamas war: What is the Two-state solution to end the crisis

By- Srushti sharma

A two-state solution is the cornerstone of any stable and secure resolution to the Israel-Palestine issue, as emphasised by a number of Arab and European leaders.

This occurred during the inaugural meeting of what Egypt referred to as the Cairo Peace Summit, which aims to identify strategies for averting an Israeli-Hamas conflict.

There were Arab presidents there, as well as royalty and high ranking officials from the Middle East, Europe, Asia, Canada, and Brazil. Israel and the US weren't there.

The horrifying terrorist attack on Israel has been denounced by the Ministry of External Affairs, which has also repeated the demand for a two-state solution.

The basic question at the heart of the two-state solution is whether or how to divide the nation's land between the Arab and Jewish people.

The two-state solution calls for the creation of two states: Israel for the Jewish people and Palestine for the Palestinian people.

Theoretically, Israel would maintain its Jewish majority and security while granting the Palestinians a state.

Egypt and Israel signed the 1978 Camp David Accords, which served as the basis for the two-state solution.

In 1988, the Palestinian Liberation Organisation initially expressed support for the two-state solution by recognising Israel's right to exist.

Over the years, Hamas has consistently opposed the two-state solution.
