MOSCOW –
Russian President Vladimir Putin on
Tuesday blamed the latest surge of violence in Palestine on the failure of US
policy, which he said had sought to monopolize negotiations while ignoring
Palestinian interests, according to Reuters.

During a visit from Iraqi Prime Minister
Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani, Putin said the United States had sought to
"monopolize" international efforts at forging peace in the region,
and accused Washington of neglecting to seek compromises that would be acceptable
to each side.
Putin said the US had ignored the interests of
Palestinians, including the need for an independent Palestinian state.
Putin echoed the words of
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov a day earlier who said the West was shortsighted if it
believed it could simply condemn attacks against Israel and then hope for an
Israeli victory without solving the Palestinian problem itself.
