During a joint press conference held with his UAE counterpart Abdullah Bin Zayid Al-Nahyan on Monday, Lavrov said, "Russia continuously reiterates its official stance that the Palestinian cause must not be marginalized or forgotten."
"The Palestinian cause must be resolved based on the UN resolutions which guarantee the creation of a Palestinian state that lives in peace and security,” Russian media reported.
Lavrov said all efforts should come together in order to resume direct talks between the Palestinians and Israelis, adding that the final goal is the establishment of a Palestinian state.
