MIDDLE EAST PEACE INITIATIVE
PARIS, JUNE 3, 2016
JOINT COMMUNIQUÉ
The Participants met in Paris on June 3, 2016 to reaffirm their support for a just,
lasting and comprehensive resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
They reaffirmed that a negotiated two-state solution is the only way to achieve an
enduring peace, with two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace
and security. They are alarmed that actions on the ground, in particular continued
acts of violence and ongoing settlement activity, are dangerously imperilling the
prospects for a two-state solution.
The Participants underscored that the status quo is not sustainable, and stressed
the importance of both sides demonstrating, with policies and actions, a genuine
commitment to the two-state solution in order to rebuild trust and create the
conditions for fully ending the Israeli occupation that began in 1967 and
resolving all permanent status issues through direct negotiations based on
resolutions 242 (1967), 338 (1973), and also recalling relevant United Nations
Security Council resolutions and highlighting the importance of the
implementation of the Arab Peace Initiative.
The Participants discussed possible ways in which the international community
could help advance the prospects for peace, including by providing meaningful
incentives to the parties to make peace. The Participants also highlighted the
potential for regional peace and security as envisioned by the Arab Peace
Initiative.
The Participants highlighted the key role of the Quartet and key regional
stakeholders. They welcomed the interested countries’ offer to contribute to this
effort. They also welcomed France’s offer to coordinate it, and the prospect of
convening before the end of the year an international conference.
