French President Emmanuel Macron hints at recognising Palestinian state
PARIS (Web Desk) French President Emmanuel Macron has hinted that France could recognise the Palestinian state in the coming months.
In an interview with France 5 television, Macron said: “I want to finalise this decision at a UN conference on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in June, which will be co-hosted by France and Saudi Arabia.”
He added, “We have to move towards recognition, and we will do so in the coming months. I am not doing this to please anyone. I will do it when I feel it is right.”
Palestinian Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Varsen Aghabekian Shaheen told a foreign news agency that “recognition by France would be the right step in line with the rights of the Palestinian people and the protection of the two-state solution.”
On the other hand, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said in an X post that any country's 'unilateral recognition' of such a fictional Palestinian state would be a reward for terrorism and an encouragement for Hamas in the context of current ground realities.
