Israel will not achieve full integration into the region without supporting a path to a Palestinian state, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken argued late Tuesday during a press conference in Tel Aviv. All regional allies that he met on his week-long trip to the Middle East told him that peace with Israel was attainable and they were ready to support a lasting solution that ends the long-running cycle of violence and ensures Israel's security. However, Blinken emphasized that peace could only come through an integrated, regional approach that includes the pathway to a Palestinian state.
