Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov criticized U.S. President Donald Trump's plan for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, stating it focuses on Gaza and is unclear about Palestinian statehood. He emphasized the need for specifics regarding the West Bank.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Monday raised concerns about U.S. President Donald Trump's newly proposed plan to address the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. According to Lavrov, the plan seems to primarily focus on the Gaza Strip.

Lavrov described the proposal as 'too vague' when it comes to addressing the critical issue of Palestinian statehood. He asserted that without clear guidelines and specifics, the plan might fail to achieve long-lasting peace.

Furthermore, Lavrov pointed out the absence of directions about the future of the West Bank, urging that comprehensive solutions are essential for sustainable peace in the region.
