Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani has said he was not in favour of helping to create a Palestinian state, contradicting current US foreign policy.

The former New York mayor, who leads polls for the Republican party’s nomination, said it was not in the interest of the US to help create “another state that will support terrorism”.

Giuliani, 63, said that, if elected president, he would consider talks with Iran, but only if its rulers understood the US might be prepared to destroy Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.

He also said that although America’s Western allies were “important”, the US “will often be best served by turning also to its other friends, old and new”. More...
