Israel’s former minister of justice, Yossi Beilin, and a former legal advisor to the Palestinian Negotiations Team, Hiba Husseini, in a joint interview, discuss the concept they have created of the ‘Holy Land Confederation’ which is designed to facilitate a two-state solution.
In this 30-minute interview, they discuss the nature of the envisaged relationship between an independent and sovereign Israel and an independent and sovereign Palestine, how the Israeli settlers in the West Bank will be handled and how the Palestinian diaspora, that wishes to return, will be accommodated.
They also discuss the future of Jerusalem and its status as well as the nature of governance in the two states. Beilin and Husseini discuss the steps that they are taking to ensure greater support for their concept from the Israeli and Palestinian people as well as from the United States and neighbours like Jordan.
