Russia and Iraq are opposed to efforts to privatize the Arab-Israeli settlement process, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Monday following talks with his Iraqi counterpart Mohamed Ali Alhakim, APA reports citing TASS.

"As for the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, we are in favor of the commitment to all UN decisions, which promote direct dialogue between the parties in order to reach an agreement on a two-state solution," Lavrov noted. "We believe that attempts to privatize the Palestinian-Israeli settlement process are counterproductive."
