UK to recognise Palestinian state in September unless Gaza situation changes
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has told the cabinet the country will recognise a Palestinian state in September unless Israel takes more steps to end the “appalling situation” in Gaza.“He said that the UK will recognise the state of Palestine in September, before UNGA [United Nations General Assembly], unless the Israeli government takes substantive steps to end the appalling situation in Gaza, reaches a ceasefire, makes clear there will be no annexation in the West Bank, and commits to a long-term peace process that delivers a Two State Solution,” a statement said.
“He reiterated that there is no equivalence between Israel and Hamas and that our demands on Hamas remain, that they must release all the hostages, sign up to a ceasefire, accept that they will play no role in the government of Gaza, and disarm.”
Starmer took the decision after recalling his cabinet during the summer holidays on Tuesday to discuss a new proposed peace plan being worked on with other European leaders and how to deliver more humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The decision comes amid growing pressure on Starmer by his Labour party to recognise a Palestinian state during the ongoing starvation crisis in Gaza. France also announced it would recognise the state of Palestine at the UN General Assembly in September.
