French President Emmanuel Macron

French President Emmanuel Macron will travel to the Middle East next spring, in a trip including Israel and the Palestinian territories, to help the peace process in the region and promote a two-state solution, Reuters has reported.

"We will continue our efforts with the United Nations to find a two-state solution, Israel and Palestine, living safely side-by-side within borders recognised by the international community, with Jerusalem at the capital of both states," Reuters quoted President Macron as saying.

Besides Israel and the Palestinian territories, Macron said the trip will include Lebanon and Jordan.
