Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has again rejected the idea of creating a Palestinian state. His comments came hours after a phone call with US President Joe Biden after which the US leader indicated Mr Netanyahu may still accept the idea. Mr Netanyahu’s remarks appeared to deepen a public divide with the US. The US believes a Palestinian state alongside Israel – known as a “two-state solution” – is vital for long-term stability. But the White House acknowledged this week the US and Israeli governments “clearly see things differently”.
