US EditionRecognizing a Palestinian state: What does it mean and how would it come about? | News Channel 3-12
Recognition aims to revive the two-state solution despite US and Israeli opposition, with 160 countries backing Palestinian statehood amid ongoing regional tensions.
- Around 160 nations have acknowledged Palestinian statehood, with recent endorsements from countries including the UK, France, Canada, and Australia, as part of efforts to revive the two-state solution.
- This recognition follows ongoing violence in Gaza and Israeli plans to annex parts of the West Bank, which leaders say make a two-state solution increasingly unlikely.
- Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, aged 89, has committed to democratic reforms and fresh elections, while Hamas continues to control Gaza and opposes disarmament.

- Despite broad international recognition, US opposition and Israeli resistance suggest the creation of a Palestinian state remains distant, prolonging instability and complicating peace efforts.

Recognizing a Palestinian state: What does it mean and how would it come about?
Some 160 states have signed up to recognize a Palestinian state. In the last week, the United Kingdom, France, Canada and Australia have done so, but the prospect of it becoming a reality amid US opposition and Israeli resistance is at best a distant one.
The policy is historic in the prolonged, I would say millennial, conflict between Israel and Palestine. More than 150 nations, including the United Kingdom, Canada, Spain, Portugal and, under some conditions, France, have recognized the existence of the Palestinian state, while demanding that the Israeli government stop the genocide in the Gaza Strip.
