EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell, who visited Israel in November, has called for the bloc of 27 European countries to become more actively involved in pursuing a two-state resolution to the conflict.

The EU maintains that this resolution must be based on the pre-1967 lines, with east Jerusalem as the capital of a Palestinian state.

Borrell has spoken of the possibility that a resolution to the conflict must be imposed on Israelis and Palestinians.“We only believe a two-state solution imposed from the outside would bring peace, even though Israel insists on the negative,” he said Friday during a speech at Valladolid University in Spain.
