Jordan pushed Pence to re-align with two-state solution
[IsraelTimes] Jordan’s king has appealed to US Vice President Mike Pence to "rebuild trust and confidence" in the possibility of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict, following fallout from the Trump administration’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital."Today we have a major challenge to overcome, especially with some of the rising frustrations," Abdullah says. Pence, in turn, is trying to reassure the monarch that the Trump administration remains committed to restarting Israeli-Paleostinian peace efforts and views Jordan as a central player. The vice president says that "the United States of America remains committed, if the parties agree, to a two-state solution." Such a caveat deviates from longstanding US support for a two-state solution as the only possible outcome of any peace deal.
