Ireland, Spain, Norway to formally recognise Palestine

The Hindu  

Norway, Ireland and Spain announced on May 22 that they will formally recognise the state of Palestine, even as reports emerged of Israel pushing its way further into Rafah in southern Gaza. countries had mixed reactions to the International Criminal Court prosecutor Karim Khan’s decision to seek arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for possible war crimes and crimes against humanity. Mr Khan is “In the midst of a war, with tens of thousands killed and injured, we must keep alive the only alternative that offers a political solution for Israelis and Palestinians alike: Two states, living side by side, in peace and security,’ Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre said, adding that the recognition of Palestine could no longer wait until the conflict was resolved. Spain’s announcement on Wednesday that it would recognise Palestine was not against the Israelis, the country’s Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez told parliament, but a step in favour of “peace, justice and moral consistency”.
