The U.S. supports the eventual creation of a Palestinian state as part of a two-state solution to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, but a White House spokeswoman said today that statehood should be achieved through negotiations, not declarations.

Under new policies, the city [plans to evict some of the roughly 15,000 adult migrants](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoMOyHP0TnaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wNS8yMi9ueXJlZ2lvbi9taWdyYW50LWV2aWN0aW9ucy1zaGVsdGVyLWFkYW1zLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyNDA1MjImaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTI0MTgwJm5sPXRoZS1ldmVuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNjc0ODQmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmZFh2dOZh1hMv1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~) that it is paying to house in hotels, tent dormitories and other buildings. The new rules do not apply to families with children, which account for the majority of the city’s shelter population of 65,000. Adults will be limited to 30 days and younger adults to 60, though migrants can qualify for an extension. This week, the eviction orders apply to about 250 migrants. The partial rollback of the so-called right-to-shelter requirement is a major shift in a policy that had set New York apart from all other big U.S. cities.
