Oppose any plan that involves forced displacement of Palestinians, says Macron
French President Emmanuel Macron has said that he is working "in close coordination with the King of Jordan in preparation for the Conference on the Two-State Solution, to be held in New York on September 22."

"Such a proposal, contrary to international law, would lead only to a dead end," he said.
