France rejects ‘third-state control’ in Gaza, calls for ‘Palestinian state’

Israel says will reduce French defence imports 'to zero'

France said Wednesday that Gaza should not be controlled by a third party after President Donald Trump said the United States should take over the war-ravaged Palestinian territory.

“France will continue to campaign for the implementation of the two-state solution, the only one that can guarantee long-term peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians alike,” the foreign ministry said, adding the future of Gaza must not involve “control by a third state”.
