Former Israeli PM: Two-state solution the only way to end conflict

Ehud Barak tells Weekend a two-state solution is necessary to achieve lasting peace

As Israel’s renewed bombardment of Gaza enters its second day after the collapse of a week-long truce, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak tells Weekend that a two-state solution is the only viable way to achieve peace.

Also on the programme: we hear from the COP28 climate summit where the BBC has learned that the host nation is actually ramping up its oil production; and the iconic feminist campaigner Gloria Steinem on why women are at the forefront in the fight for democracy:

Joining Luke Jones in the studio to discuss all this and more are Rachel Harris, professor of ethnomusicology at SOAS, London University, and Adela Suliman, reporter for the Washington Post newspaper in London.
