PM Mette F. open to military action in Middle East

Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen is open to the possibility of international military intervention in the Middle East due to the absence of a solution to the ongoing conflict. She stated that the international community may need to ‘force’ a two-state solution to achieve lasting peace. Frederiksen believes the conflict has escalated to a point where pragmatic forces no longer exist on either side, suggesting that both Hamas and Israel are trapping not just their people but the entire world in a detrimental cycle. She did not specify how a military intervention might take place or under which mandate, but she mentioned UN operations as one example of how international involvement has been mandated in other conflicts.
