None

The European Union's top diplomat said she discussed concrete steps with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday to calm tensions between Israelis and Palestinians.

 

"I passed him a message of the need to explore together ways to stop violence, to calm down the situation, to show leadership and restraint, also on the rhetoric," EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said after meeting Netanyahu in Berlin. "We discussed concrete ways to de-escalate the situation on the ground and to guarantee the status quo in the holy sites," she told reporters.
