U.K, Canada and Australia formally recognize a Palestinian state, breaking with the U.S.

Australia joins Canada and the UK in recognizing Palestine, aiming to boost a two-state solution amid ongoing conflict and humanitarian crises in the region.

  • The UK is expected to recognize a Palestinian state despite U.S. opposition, as announced by Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy and Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
  • Starmer stated that recognition won't happen overnight and that Hamas must not govern the Palestinian people and must release Israeli hostages.
  • The UK's recognition comes ahead of the UN General Assembly, where Australia and Canada are also expected to recognize a Palestinian state.
  • This largely symbolic move aims to increase diplomatic pressure for peace amid fears that the situation in Gaza is deteriorating further.
