German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier has called United States Secretary of State John Kerry's Middle East policy speech confirmation that there is only one way to end the conflict between Israel and the Palestinian Authority and that is the two-state solution.
His office issued a statement that s"It was a warning that a two-state solution cannot be allowed to become an empty phrase, and a call for both sides to take the necessary steps towards fostering such a two-state solution,"
