	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/11/2014 answer text <p>In its 22 July 2014 Council Conclusions, the EU made clear that it will only recognise changes to the pre-1967 borders, including with regard to Jerusalem, when agreed by the parties. Settlements, including in East Jerusalem, are illegal under international law and an obstacle to the two state solution. Discussions are continuing in Brussels on how the EU can best discourage further Israeli settlement expansion including in East Jerusalem. The EU has also called on both parties to resume serious peace negotiations, which must resolve the status of Jerusalem as the future capital of both states.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 06/11/2014 14:19:02 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns

	uin	HL2443
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/11/2014 answer text <p>The UK fully supports the efforts of the UN Secretary-General and calls on all sides to cooperate with the investigation. As the UK and EU made clear, the attacks on UN schools in Gaza, which resulted in the deaths of innocent children, were shocking. We are pressing Israel to demonstrate accountability for its actions during the conflict, both through internal processes, such as Israel Defence Forces' investigations of specific cases of engagement, and international procedures, such as this inquiry, which must be independent and balanced, and examine the actions of both Hamas and Israel.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 06/11/2014 14:09:27 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
