Norway’s Foreign Minister Calls for Clear Plan for One Palestine

SHARE

Norwegian Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide has reiterated the need for a two-state solution, emphasizing the establishment of a unified Palestine. He highlighted the urgent need to end the Gaza conflict and increase humanitarian aid while focusing on a long-term political solution.

Mr. Eide stressed, “We need clarity that there will be one Palestine.” Norway is working closely with regional partners to achieve this vision, building on decades of efforts since the Oslo Accords of 1993. He emphasized that any future Palestinian state must involve representation from Gaza and the West Bank, ensuring inclusive governance while steering away from militant rule.

Eide pointed out the importance of forming a credible government that includes those who have suffered in Gaza but does not align with armed factions. He added, “A functioning government is critical for a sovereign Palestinian state, encompassing East Jerusalem, the West Bank, and Gaza.”

Norway, a key advocate for peace, continues to play a central role. Last year, it launched the Global Alliance for the Implementation of a Palestinian State alongside Saudi Arabia and other international partners. Norway’s recognition of Palestine and its consistent push for international support have amplified its influence in these efforts.

The minister also addressed concerns about fragmentation among Palestinian factions, stressing the need for unity. He warned against solutions that fall short of full sovereignty, stating, “It has to be a credible state covering all its territory.”

Mr. Eide highlighted the broader implications of resolving the Palestinian issue, calling it the root of many Middle Eastern conflicts. He emphasized that addressing this core problem is vital for long-term regional stability. “The ongoing occupation fuels hardliners, but resolving this can weaken their arguments,” he explained.

Norway has also backed international legal rulings that label the occupation of Palestine as illegal. While these rulings lack direct enforcement mechanisms, they have led to tangible actions, such as restrictions on arms sales to Israel by Norway and the UK.

The UN General Assembly recently passed a resolution, spearheaded by Norway and 22 co-sponsors, calling for unimpeded humanitarian aid to Gaza. This effort underlines Norway’s commitment to upholding international law and supporting Palestinian refugees.

Looking ahead, Mr. Eide remains cautiously optimistic. He believes the collective efforts of Arab leaders and international partners could pave the way for a meaningful ceasefire and a comprehensive plan. He stressed that indigenous solutions must lead the way, with external allies offering support based on experience and neutrality.

Mr. Eide concluded by expressing hope that next year will bring a ceasefire backed by actionable plans, addressing both immediate needs and long-term goals. He underscored the importance of satisfying people’s aspirations for peace and stability, saying, “We need to present a vision for a solution.”
