Tokyo [Japan], October 8 (ANI): Japan's Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaya has warned Israel that any action to destroy the foundation of a two-state solution will lead Tokyo to consider sanctions against Israel or the recognition of Palestinian statehood, Al Jazeera reported.
Marking the anniversary of the October 7 attacks, Iwaya said it's essential to stop Israel's one-sided actions, achieve a sustainable ceasefire, an immediate release of all captives, and support humanitarian relief to Gaza.
All parties should act in accordance with a plan proposed by President Trump, he said, as per Al Jazeera.
'In case of a development that completely destroys the foundation of the two-state solution, Japan will consider all options, including sanctions against Israel or a recognition of a Palestinian state,' Iwaya said.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has marked the two-year anniversary of the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attacks on Israel with a pledge that the United States remains 'unwavering' in support for Israel, Al Jazeera reported.
In a statement, Rubio also lamented a 'troubling rise' in anti-Semitism around the world, and said there would be 'no compromise' in combating it. 'The United States reaffirms its unwavering support for Israel's right to exist, to defend itself, and to ensure the safety of its people,' Rubio said.
He added, 'As the United States marks this tragic anniversary and honours the victims, we renew our resolve to prevent such evil from ever taking place again.'
