The Israeli-Palestinian conflict began in the early 20th century.

 Borders, control of Jerusalem, Israeli

settlements, water rights, finding a resolution to the Palestinian refugee question – are the main issues
connected to this conflict. On September 13 1993, the Oslo I agreement between Israel and Palestine
Liberation Organisation was symbolically sealed. The Oslo I agreement was perceived at the time as
finding peace and justice in Palestine-Israel, but this conflict still remains one of the most acute conflicts
in the world no matter how many years have passed.
One thing is for sure, the Israeli-Palestinian peace process is stagnating. Growing pessimism, the lack of
trust and as well as lack of willingness. Neither side wants to renew negotiations.
Yet, there are the potential solutions that can divided into two categories. The first is “One State
Solution”, also called the “bi-national state”. This would create one democratic state in which both
Israeli Jews and Palestinian Arabs would live as citizens with equal rights. The second is “Two State
Solution”. This plan would create two states for two peoples, Israel and Palestine, but reaching
agreement on things like borders and Jerusalem and Palestinian refugees will be too complicated. Today,
that concept seems so far from reality. So there is “The third-way solution”, which means the model of
two independent states but with an open border, a shared Jerusalem. All this solutions face the same
problem: it is impossible to do, as sides are not negotiation with each other.
If we look back to the past, we will see some lessons that we can learn from Oslo. Firstly,
breakthroughs take time to prepare; focuses on official interactions and meetings. secondly, drawing on
multiple tracks will be more profitable. Israeli and Palestinian businesspeople can play a key role in
developing policy as well as regional cooperation; Thirdly, there are enough ideas already out there to
draw on from historic Israeli-Palestinian negotiations; so main goal is to get both states to the table.

And fourthly, the involvement of US is not compulsory, because as history shows

other countries can step in, to impact on renewing negotiations and peace process
between Israel-Palestine and get these two states on the same table.
