The status of Jerusalem is one of the sticking points hindering the Palestinian-Israeli peace process, and the international community generally does not recognize Israel's sovereignty over the whole of Jerusalem. Israel occupied East Jerusalem in the third Middle East War in 1967 and unilaterally declared the whole of Jerusalem a "permanent and indivisible capital." Palestine seeks to establish a Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital. Former US President Donald Trump announced his recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel in 2017, overturning decades of US foreign policy. At present, the internationally recognized "two-state solution" refers to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with full sovereignty on the basis of the 1967 borders and with East Jerusalem as its capital.
