Grahame Morris – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Grahame Morris on 2016-04-25.

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what the Government’s policy is on the proposal from the French government to convene a conference on the Israel-Palestine peace process.

Mr Tobias Ellwood

We are in close contact with the French about the proposed conference in Paris next month. We share the frustration at the lack of progress in the Middle East Peace Process. We believe that peace will ultimately only come through negotiations between the parties. Regional players, the EU and the Quartet can play a role in supporting progress.
