Two-state solution not impossible with Netanyahu in office, Biden claims

US President Joe Biden has said that a two-state solution could still move forward while Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is still in office.

Biden said that there were “many” forms a two-state solution could take, and the Israeli leader wasn't against all of them.

In discussing the issue further, he also said there are UN member states that don’t have militaries, hinting at what a possible Palestinian state acceptable by Israel could look like.

Netanyahu said clearly on Thursday that he would oppose the creation of a Palestinian state, and said Israel should be in complete control "from the river to the sea".
