Germany calls for launching two-state solution for Mideast

BERLIN, Sept 22 (KUNA) -- Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul called on Monday for launching the process to achieve the two-state solution for the Middle East, despite Germany not recognizing Palestine as some European countries have recently.
Prior to departure to New York for the 80th UNGA, Wadephul said in a statement that Germany would recognize Palestine after the end of the two-state solution talks, which would hopefully result in the establishment of the State of Palestine.
Wadephul will be participating in a French-Saudi conference in New York on Tuesday to reinforce chances for the two-state solution prior to the UNGA. (end) anj.gta
