White House observes more countries opposing Israel as Ireland, Spain, Norway recognize Palestinian state

White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan on Wednesday responded to Ireland, Spain and Norway's decision to recognize a Palestinian state, observing a growing trend of the international community turning away from Israel. 

At the daily White House press briefing, Sullivan reiterated President Biden's support for a "two-state solution" once Israeli forces defeat Hamas militants operating in Gaza. 

"Each country is entitled to make its own determinations, but the U.S. position on this is clear," Sullivan said.
