Blinken calls pathway to Palestinian state ‘necessity for Israeli security’
Antony Blinken spoke at the forum’s meeting in Davos (AP)

US secretary of state Antony Blinken has reiterated the need for a “pathway to a Palestinian state” at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in the Swiss resort of Davos, saying that Israel would not achieve “genuine security” without it.

Mr Blinken said that if Israel can be brought into the fold of the Middle East, the region would be coming together to isolate Iran, which he called “the biggest concern in terms of security”, as well as its proxies including Yemen’s Houthi rebels who have been attacking commercial ships in the Red Sea.
