In turn, Konakovic stressed the brotherly friendship between his country and Palestine, and his support for the two-state solution and the peace path, expressing his deep sympathy for the Palestinian people and the escalating violations they are being subjected to.

He stressed the need for concerted international efforts to find a comprehensive and radical solution that guarantees the rights of the Palestinian people and ends the prevailing state of violence.
