European Union Member States Considering Recognition of Palestinian State – Implications and International Response
European Union Member States Contemplate Recognizing Palestinian State
The news broke out that Ireland, Spain, and a number of other European Union member states are reportedly mulling over the recognition of a Palestinian state. This significant development is expected to take place on May 21.
International Recognition of Palestinian State
International recognition of a Palestinian state has been a contentious issue for many years. As it stands, several countries across the globe have already recognized Palestine as a sovereign state.
