Biden says Palestinians need ‘political horizon’ towards peace

Bethlehem, Palestinian Territories

"There must be a political horizon that the Palestinian people can actually see or at least feel. We cannot allow the hopelessness to steal away the future," Biden said alongside Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas in Bethlehem.
