UK seeks pro-peace Palestinian leadership as soon as possible

A move towards a peace-loving leadership in Palestine is the most desired outcome in the Israel-Hamas conflict, British foreign minister James Cleverly said on Wednesday, reiterating Britain's support for a two-state solution.

"In the short term, it is inevitable that Israel, because they have the troops in Gaza, will need to have a security responsibility," Cleverly said at the G7 summit in Japan.

"But our view is as soon as practicable, a move towards a peace loving Palestinian leadership is the most desired outcome."
