The announcements came on the eve of the annual gathering of the U.N. General Assembly, ramping up pressure on Israel and putting three allies at odds with the Trump administration.
Britain, Canada and Australia confirmed on Sunday that they now formally recognize Palestinian statehood, piling pressure on Israel to ease the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and putting three major American allies at odds with the Trump administration.
The widely expected announcements came on the eve of the annual gathering of the United Nations General Assembly in New York. France and Portugal have also pledged to vote for recognition of Palestinian statehood at the U.N. this week, joining some 150 members of the body who have already done so.
The concerted action, across three continents, will deepen the diplomatic isolation of Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. But so far, moves to recognize a Palestinian state have not curbed Israel’s military campaign against Hamas, which has killed tens of thousands of people in Gaza and left much of the enclave in ruins.
Israeli Prime Minister said that any nation who recognized a Palestinian State would suffer consequences for doing so. He thinks he has the right to dictate the foreign policy for other countries. Dream on BiBi.
