PARIS/BRUSSELS: France said on Friday the United States had sidelined itself in the Middle East by recognising Jerusalem as Israel´s capital, but the EU´s top diplomat insisted Washington remains a mediator as Europe struggled for unity in its diplomacy.
US President Donald Trump´s decision to move the US Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem revived old tensions between EU governments that want to see peace in the Middle East, but have varying degrees of sympathy towards Israel and the Palestinians."I hear some, including Mr Tillerson, say things will happen in time and the hour is for negotiations. Until now (the US) could have had a mediation role in this conflict, but it has excluded itself a little," French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said, referring to US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who is in Paris for talks after visiting Brussels and Vienna. "The reality is they are alone and isolated on this issue," he told France Inter radio.
