French President Emmanuel Macron has said that his country will formally recognize Palestine as an independent state at the United Nations General Assembly meeting in September.
According to the World News Agency, French President Emmanuel Macron wrote a letter to Palestinian President Mahmood Abbas about the French intentions.
In his letter, President Emmanuel Macron wrote that France would recognize the Palestinian kingdom for sustainable and fair peace in the Middle East.
French President Emmanuel Macron said he would formally announce it at the United Nations General Assembly in September.
It should be noted that France is currently the largest population of Jews and Muslims in Europe and will be the first largest western force to identify Palestine.
France has chosen the next meeting of the General Assembly to present a new diplomatic structure for two -two solutions with other countries.
However, France’s courageous decision has disrupted both Israel and the United States, and both countries have severely responded.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it “reward for terrorism”, saying that in the present situation, Palestinian state could be the basis of the end of Israel.
The Israeli Defense Minister has also called France’s decision to give Palestine a “shameful” recognition to an independent state.
US State Secretary Marco Rubio said the French Steps as an ancestor for Hamas, saying that his country completely rejects the decision.
He said that France’s move was an insult to the Israeli victims killed in Hamas’s attack on October 7, 2023.
On which French Foreign Minister Jean -ANL Barrow made it clear that we are recognizing Palestine by opposing Hamas because Hamas is opposing two -two solutions.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia has welcomed the French decision and called for the same “positive steps” from other countries to identify Palestine.
According to the Saudi Foreign Ministry, this step supports peace and valid rights of Palestinians.
Spain, which has already recognized the Palestinian kingdom, also praised Macron’s announcement.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said that the two -set solution is the only solution and is happy to join France.
Canada has also pressured Israel to improve Gaza’s position and eliminate obstacles for humanitarian aid.
Prime Minister Mark Karni accused Israel of violating international law.
It should be noted that the United States has already warned countries that intend to recognize Palestine unilaterally.
The United States warned that such action could be against the US foreign policy.
Palestinian Authority Vice President Hussain al -Sikh thanked France, saying that the decision was the support of international law and the Palestinian people had the right to confirm the rights of the Palestinian people.
