“We are on the right path to obtain a strong statement. Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Jolie said on Friday morning:” I am sure that this is the case. “It is normal in all G-7 that there are negotiations until late at night.”

Reaching an agreement in the Middle East was the most challenging part of the discussions, and the familiar people said, because the United States will not accept the reference to a solution or Palestine from the two countries. However, people said that the coalition was able to persuade the United States to adhere to a “political horizon for the Palestinian people.”

This horizon is expected to be said that the statement will be achieved by resolving negotiations for the conflict with Israel, and meeting “legitimate needs and aspirations for both peoples.” The statement calls for a solution that develops “the comprehensive peace of the Middle East, stability and prosperity”, according to the people who saw the document.

President Donald Trump disturbed a Palestinian and other Arab officials last month when he handed over the Gaza Strip to “Riviera” in the Middle East. Since then he cleared his speech, saying that “no one has expelled any Palestinians.”

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not immediately respond to a request for suspension.

Jolie said that the goal of the foreign ministers throughout the meeting, which occurred on Wednesday to Friday, is to “maintain a strong G-7 unit.”

She said: “Canada's position is clear, and we believe in a solution of the two countries,” she said. “I think you will see in the statement that the Israelis and the Palestinians in the end can only live side by side if we respect their right to self -determination. I think there is strong support for this approach.”

In Ukraine, foreign ministers overcame the initial differences and are appointed to agree to a statement confirming their support for the country's regional integrity and sovereignty. Persons with knowledge of the statement said, “It was taken from a previous statement issued in Munich, which makes new, clear sanctions imposed on Russia if it does not agree to the ceasefire.”

The diplomats also discussed the scene of negotiations with Iran, as some people said, adding that there is likely to be a separate announcement of maritime security. The United States has considered the United States as a Canadian proposal to address shadow fleets, a major source of income for Russia during its invasion of Ukraine, Bloomberg said.
