Former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley weighed in on a two-state solution on Tuesday, arguing that “it is not a true conversation” because Palestinians and Iran “don’t want it,” ahead of the expected end of a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas.
Asked by a voter at a town hall here if a two-state solution is possible between the Israelis and Palestinians, the 2024 GOP presidential candidate said that when she was working at the United Nations, “it was never Israel opposing a two-state solution.”
“It was always the Palestinians and Iran opposing a two-state solution. They never wanted that because they wanted to eliminate Israel altogether,” she said, later adding, “Whatever Israel says they feel like will keep them safe, I will support.”
