U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is currently stuck in Davos, Switzerland, where he attended the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting, due to a problem with his aircraft, as reported by officials.
Bloomberg revealed that his modified Boeing 737 experienced a critical issue following the detection of an oxygen leak, rendering the aircraft unsafe to fly.
Earlier, during a Davos panel, Blinken discussed the Middle East, emphasizing the need for stability and calling the situation an “inflection point” that demands difficult decisions. He expressed confidence in finding a resolution to end the Israel-Hamas conflict.
“We’re in the midst of what is human tragedy in so many ways in the Middle East right now — for the Israelis and Palestinians alike,” he said.
Blinken reiterated the necessity of a “pathway to a Palestinian state” and stressed that Israel would not “get genuine security absent that.” He acknowledged the challenges in reaching a resolution and the need for a mindset open to that perspective.
Ultimately, Blinken said, Israelis must decide on their leadership and direction, and whether they can “seize the opportunity that we believe is there.”
