According to 'The Guardian' newspaper, the Spanish politician said, “We had the privilege of watching two 'interesting' videos, one of a plan for an artificial island to serve as a port and another for a port. A train to connect the Middle East with India”.
“I think the minister could have made better use of his time and the security of his country and the high number of deaths in the Middle East and the Gaza Strip,” Borrell noted.
The EU's diplomatic chief vowed to remain committed to reaching a Middle East solution whether Israel is ready or not. “Peace is a good common goal, no one is saying they are against peace, and in our view we should stop talking about peace in the Middle East, but talk about the specifics of a two-state solution.”
