In preparation for the upcoming Palestinian Unilateral Declaration of Independence at the United Nations, we would like you to be aware of a few key points and make sure that we as the Consulate and the State of Israel have clarified our position on the matter. Israel seeks a lasting Peace and is in favor of a two State solution. We support negotiations to that end and feel that any Unilateral action undermines true steps toward Peace. We will of course make sure there is up to date information and news releases on our website.
