U.K, Canada and Australia formally recognize a Palestinian state, breaking with the U.S.
- On Sunday, September 21, 2025, the United Kingdom and Portugal will formally recognise a Palestinian state ahead of key UN talks in New York.
- This announcement follows UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's July pledge to recognise Palestine unless Israel meets conditions like a Gaza ceasefire and UN aid access.
- The recognition is largely symbolic but aims to increase diplomatic pressure to end conflict and support a two-state solution amid Gaza's humanitarian crisis.
- David Lammy emphasized the importance of reforming the Palestinian Authority while striving to maintain the possibility of two states for the future generations in Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem.
- The UK’s move faces opposition from the US and Israel, which condemns the plan and threatens West Bank annexation, while over 140 countries have already recognised Palestine.
