Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said in his recent interview with Politico that resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict through the establishment of two states does not guarantee a calm situation in the region in the future.

He added: "The two-state solution does not guarantee that what we have seen in recent weeks will not happen again... I believe that the West Bank should be handed over to Jordanian control instead of seeking a two-state solution, as a result of which one of the other state will seek and be determined to crush Israel."

Kissinger noted that more active measures are needed from Washington to prevent escalation of the conflict in the region.

Kissinger's death was announced on November 29.

The former Secretary of State gained fame as one of the most influential political figures in the United States, leaving a significant mark in the history of diplomacy.

Kissinger, a major player in global diplomacy during the Cold War and a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, launched rapprochement with Moscow and Beijing in the 1970s, relying on a pragmatic worldview that was a kind of American-style “realpolitik.”
