US President Donald Trump has said that he is not taking a position on the recognition of a Palestinian state.
Responding to a question from reporters while meeting British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Scotland, Trump was asked if he agreed with Starmer’s position that “recognising the Palestinian state would be a concrete step towards a lasting peace”.
“I’m not going to take a position, I don’t mind if he (Starmer) takes a position,” he replied. “I’m looking for … getting people fed. Right now, I think that’s the number one position.”
