Jerusalem should ultimately be the shared capital of Israeli and Palestinian states, British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson told his Palestinian counterpart, Riad Malki, at a meeting in London on Monday, according to a statement from Britain's Foreign Office.
"I reiterated the U.K.'s commitment to supporting the Palestinian people and the two-state solution, the urgent need for renewed peace negotiations, and the U.K.'s clear and long-standing position on the status of Jerusalem," Johnson said.
"It should be determined in a negotiated settlement between the Israelis and the Palestinians, and Jerusalem should ultimately be the shared capital of the Israeli and Palestinian states," he said.
