President Barack Obama’s national security advisor and former NATO general Jim Jones has said that the Iranian nuclear threat could be reduced by promoting the two-state solution in the Middle East. Jones said Iran was a "top strategic issue" on the American agenda and that the Obama administration intended to discuss it with Israeli leaders next week.
Meanwhile, the United Nations Security Council is to hold talks on reviving the Middle East peace process and creating an independent Palestinian state. Israeli and Palestinian representatives will not take part in the UN talks, but Russia has called for the debate, saying that "vigorous" diplomacy was needed to address the issue.
