The United Kingdom, Canada and Australia officially recognized Palestine as the state of 21 September. This step is considered to be a significant shift in the foreign policy of these nations and a step away from their alignment with the United States, which leaned towards Israel under the administration of Trump.
Anne -cement by three nations of communities and long -term allies reflects growing outrage on the Israeli behavior of war in Gaza and steps to thwart the efforts to create a Palestinian state and its expansion lower banks.

“Today, to revive the peace of Palestinum and Israelka and the solution of two states, the United Kingdom formally recognizes the state of Palestines,” said British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in his statement.
Portugal also announced its decision to recognize Palestine as a state. France, Belgium and other countries were ready to follow the action at the UN General Assembly.
Canada became the first group of 7 nation to recognize the Palestinian state because Prime Minister Mark Carney promised “a peaceful future for both Palestine and the Israeli state”.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese issued a statement shortly after formally recognized the “independent and sovereign state of Palestine”.
Genocide against Palestinians in Gaza
Development comes after the UN Inquiry Commission said Israel had committed genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.
The new report stated that there are reasonable reasons to conclude that four out of five genocidal acts defined under international law They were made since the beginning of the last phase of Hamas war in 2023: killing members of the group, causing them serious physical and mental harm, intentionally causing the conditions calculated to destroy the group and prevent birth.
It doesn’t happen: Netanyahu
This decision caused an angry reaction to Israel, which excluded the prospect. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired three countries for offering a “prize” to Hamas. “It won’t,” he said.
“The Palestinian state will not be established west of the Jordan River.”
Netanyahu said he would announce an Israeli response along the way. Ntanyahu speaks at the General Assembly on Friday before heading to US President Donald Trump in the White House.
What does the recognition of the Palestinian state mean?
Remember that recognition does not mean that a Palestinian state was created. In fact, the recognition of the world’s main powers, with the exception of the US, is largely symbolic and carries political weight.
“I know it seems symbolic for many people, but in fact, it is a kind of game inverter in terms of symbolism,” wrote lawyer and professor Franco-Brnitish Philippe Sands in the New York Times in August.
Palestine has international recognition, diplomatic missions abroad and teams that compete in sports competitions, including the Olympic Games. But because if his long -term dispute with Israel, Palestine has no internationally agreed boundaries, no capital and no military, the BBC report said.
Given the Israeli military occupation on the West Bank, the Palestinian authority (PA), which was founded as a result of peace agreements at the age of 90, has no control of its land or people.
“Puts Palestine and Israel to level”
Gaza, where Israel is also an occupying power, has been in the middle of a devastating war since 2023.
In these circumstances, Palestine is what many call the species of quasi-stroke. Recognition would therefore mean a strong moral and political statement. But this does not change much on Earth.

“Because once you recognize Palestinian statehood … you basically put Palestine and Israel at a level of their treatment under international law,” Sands wrote.
Who recognizes Palestine as a state?
Palestine is currently recognized by about 75 % of the 193 UN Member States. In the UN, Palestine has the status of a “permanent observation state”, which allows participation but no voting rights.
With the British and upcoming French recognition, Palestine soon enjoys the support of four of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council. China and Russia recognized Palestine in 1988.
This leaves the US, the strongest ally of Israel by far, in a minority of one.
The US has recognized the Palestinian authority, currently led by Mahmúd Abbas, since its foundation in the mid -90s. Since then, several presidents have expressed support for the possible creation of a Palestinian state. But under Donald Trump’s administration, American policy has been in favor of Israel.
France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Malta are expected to follow a lawsuit at the UN headquarters in New York on Monday on Monday.
Russia, along with all Arab countries, almost all African and Latin American countries, and most Asian countries, including India and China, are already on the list.
Algeria became the first country to officially recognize the Palestinian state on November 15, 1988, minutes after the leader of the late Palestinian liberation (PLO) Yasser Arafat unilaterally declared an independent Palestinian state.
The most complex questions
Romain Le Boeuf, a professor of international law at the University of Aix-Marseille, in southern France, described the recognition of Palestinian statehood as “one of the most complicated questions” in international law, “a bit like halfway between political and jurist.”
Le Boeuf, told the AFP press agency freely to choose the timing and form of recognition, with large variants that are either explicit or implicit.
There is no office to register recognition. “The Palestinian authority on the West Bank states everything they consider to be recognition on their own list, but from a purely subjective point of view. Similarly, other states say they are or not recognized, but without having to justify,” he said.
What changes on Earth?
This step means that Palestine will have full diplomatic rights and missions, and nations recognize them as a state.
For example, in the case of the United Royal Kingdon, the Foreign Office said that the Foreign Minister Yvette Cooper would write to his Palestinian counterpart “at the right time to create a process of establishing full diplomatic relations”.
Currently, the delegation of the Palestinian office (PA) is not to the UK at the Embassy level and acts as a “diplomatic mission” based in Hammersmith in West London.
The state of the embassy would provide delegation protection and authorization under the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations and the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
International status of Palestinian statehood?
P
However, the management body performs limited self -government in parts of the Israeli West Bank on the basis of agreements with Israel. It publishes Palestinian passports and operates Palestinian health and education systems.
However, some business, investment, educational and cultural stock exchanges are limiting Israel and there are currently no Palestinian airports.
The middle bank on the inland bank can only be achieved through Israel or through the Israeli -controlled border with Jordan. Israel also controls all access to the Gaza band.

The Palestinian state was under the Israeli military occupation for more than half a century.
Mother of Palestine becomes a sovereign state?
According to the Montevideo Convention of 1933, officially the Convention on the Rights and Obligations of States, there are several criteria before Palestine is recognized as a sovereign state under international law. The process requires the state to have:
• Permanent population.
• Effective government and international relations.
• Formal diplomatic processes including embassies, ambassadors and contracts.
What was the Indian stand?
India formally recognized the Palestinian booth back 18 November 1988.
On Sunday, Congress pulled out Narendra Modi and said that Indian policy of Palestine, especially in the last 20 months, was “shameful and one of the moral cowardice”.
The Secretary General of the Congress responsible for communication, Jairam Ramesh, said that Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom have just recognized Palestine as a state and are expected to be soon.
India formally acknowledged the path of Palestinian statehood back 18 November 1988. He said. “But the Indian policy concerning Palestine – especially in the last 20 months – was shameful and one of the moral cowardice,” Ramesh said in an apparent reference to the conflict of Israeli Ham.

Today, to revive the hope of peace for Palestinians and Israelka, the United Kingdom formally recognizes the state of Palestines.
“At that time, and in fact, we have shown the world’s bravely struggle throughout the Palestinian people by being worth what was right and following the values of humanity and justice on the international scene,” she said on X after the decision of the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia to recognize the Palestinian state.
