A high-level United Nations conference, co-chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, has convened in New York to revive momentum for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The event, attended by dozens of countries but boycotted by the US and Israel, comes as the humanitarian crisis in Gaza worsens and international calls for Palestinian statehood grow louder. UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned that the conflict is at a 'breaking point,' urging bold political action and condemning unilateral moves that undermine peace efforts. Saudi Arabia reiterated that normalization with Israel is impossible without the establishment of a Palestinian state, while France called on the EU to pressure Israel to engage. Despite strong international support, the absence of the US and Israel casts doubt on the conference's immediate impact.
