Talking about two-state solution in Palestine issue is not practical

Tehran, IRNA – President of the Iranian Strategic Council on Foreign Relations Kamal Kharazi has said that talking about a two-state solution in the Palestine issue is not practical because only 20% of the Palestinian land is in the hands of Palestinians right now, and even in that 20%, there are a lot of settlers who have been occupying the Palestinian land.

In an interview with Al Jazeera on Monday, Kharazi said that the final solution would be establishing a one-state composed of Muslims, Christians, and Jews, decided by the original people who have been living in this land.

The solution should be a reasonable plan to come up with as a solution. For example, in the case of South Africa, they finally removed the apartheid regime and agreed on a democratic state, he said, noting that the one-state solution is getting more support these days around the world.

In reaction to the question about the two-state solution based on 1967 borders, Kharazi underlined that “this is their own business, of course. We have our position, but we are not going to dictate our position to others”.  

He further noted that even in 1947, before the establishment of Israel, Iran opposed the two-state solution in the United Nations. At that time, the representative of Iran gave a speech and said that with a two-state solution, never fighting would end, and there would be bloodshed all over the years. And that has been correct.

Therefore, eventually, there should be one state where Palestinians and others would live together, Kharazi noted.
