US Criticizes ICJ Opinion on Israeli Occupation, Impact on Two-State Solution
Jul 20, 2024, 08:55 PM
The United States has criticized the International Court of Justice's (ICJ) opinion that Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories is illegal. The US State Department stated that the ICJ's advice for Israel to withdraw 'as rapidly as possible' is inconsistent with the established framework for resolving the conflict, according to Reuters. Washington expressed concerns that the opinion would complicate efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and undermine the two-state solution. The State Department also criticized 'the breadth' of the opinion and strongly discouraged parties from using the ICJ opinion as a pretext for further unilateral actions that could deepen divisions or supplant a negotiated two-state solution.
