PM Modi said a path to peace has been created through the Gaza Peace Plan and that India has fully supported these efforts.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said that humanity must never suffer because of conflict, while addressing a joint press briefing with Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem.

Speaking on India’s position on the situation in Gaza, Prime Minister Modi said a path to peace has been created through the Gaza Peace Plan and that India has fully supported these efforts.

“India’s vision is clear that humanity must never become a victim of conflict. The Gaza Peace Plan has opened a route to peace. India has supported such efforts. In future too, India will continue to cooperate and have dialogue with all nations," PM Modi said.

At the press conference, he also emphasised that Israel and India were united in their stand against terrorism. “India and Israel are clear that there is no place for terrorism in the world. Terrorism cannot be accepted in any form. We will continue to fight against terrorism and its supporters," he added.

PM Modi reiterated his support for the US-led Gaza Peace Initiative. On Wednesday, while speaking at the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, he called the plan as a path towards a “just and durable peace" in the region.

“The Gaza Peace Initiative that was endorsed by the UN Security Council offers a pathway. India has expressed its firm support for the initiative. We believe that it holds the promise of a just and durable peace for all the people of the region, including by addressing the Palestine issue… Let all our efforts be guided by wisdom, courage, and humanity. The road to peace is not always easy. But India joins you and the world for dialogue, peace and stability in this region," the Prime Minister had stated.

This is PM Modi’s second visit to Israel as prime minister since taking office in 2014. He first visited Israel in 2017, before Netanyahu made a reciprocal visit to India the following year.
