the us secretary of state on a trip with a narrow ame keeping things calm after the seas. his 1st stop an audience with israel's prime minister pledging the u. s. is continuing commitment to israel's defense. but adding this, we believe that palestinians and israelis equally deserved to live safely and securely, to enjoy equal measures of freedom opportunity, and democracy to be treated with dignity that echoed by the israeli leader. his words, perhaps unconvincing to some of the leading and 11 day bombardment of garza, we discussed also how to improve the lives in the conditions of the palestinians. the managed turn conditions in ramallah, the 1st visit by a secretary of state to the president of the palestinian authority for over 3 years old contact was stopped when the trumpet ministration announced it was moving the u . s. embassy to jerusalem. there was a cordial tone,
3:03 am
but it was clear one of the president central, the bonds was not on the u. s. agenda. one of the month. and you're going out. we hope that the future will be full of diplomatic activity in order to reach a comprehensive solution and to put an end to recent events. president bass was told though that the u. s. would reopen its consulate general in east jerusalem. a diplomatic representation specifically for palestinians, which was close by president trump. there was a commitment to help in the rebuilding of garza after the 11 day war and a new package of funding for the un and the palestinian authority. what was most telling in his meetings was what secretary lincoln didn't say, no mention of pushing towards the 2 state solution. no mention of a piece process. it's clear that the biden administration wants to put a lid on this conflict, but for now doesn't want to attempt to actually solve it. james bay's al jazeera
