Ministers gather at UN for delayed meeting on Israel, Palestinians

On July 28, 2025, ministers from more than 100 countries gathered at the United Nations to consider a two-state solution, despite the United States and Israel boycotting the meeting.
The High-level International Conference for the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine, originally scheduled for June, was postponed due to a 12-day war between Israel and Iran and rescheduled to start on Monday.
Despite 'tactical pauses' in Israeli operations, the conference occurs amid a 22-month war between Israel and Hamas, with Gaza's humanitarian crisis expected to dominate speeches by representatives of more than 100 countries.
The US will not attend the conference, with a State Department spokesperson describing it as 'a gift to Hamas,' and Israel also abstained.
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said he will launch an appeal in New York culminating on September 21, expecting Arab countries to condemn Hamas and call for disarmament.
