Yosef Haddad, currently the second-in-command in the party led by Ofir Winter, expressed support for a two-state solution approximately five years ago in an Arabic interview. When asked about the establishment of a Palestinian state, Haddad stated, "Of course, this is something I always say: that the final solution is the State of Israel alongside the State of Palestine. Of course, this must happen, there is no denying it." He further elaborated, "And God willing, this is my thinking, God willing, when the Israeli Arabs are proud of their Arabness and their Israeli identity, and when they are an integral part of the decision-making process, it will be possible to move forward to peace between us and our Palestinian brethren."
Earlier in the same interview, Haddad had indicated that after the improvement of the Arab society's condition in Israel and its integration into governmental institutions, Israeli Arabs would be able to speak about "our Palestinian brethren in Gaza and the West Bank."
