Gaza: French President Emmanuel Macron recently said that France is likely to recognize Palestine as a state in the coming months.
He made this statement during his visit to Egypt, where he was meeting with regional leaders to talk about the future of Gaza.
The main focus of these talks was to discuss the ongoing situation in Gaza and how to address the growing crisis in the region.
This announcement is a significant shift in France's foreign policy. Although France has supported the idea of a two-state solution for many years, it has not yet formally recognized Palestine as a state.
Macron's statement comes at a time when tensions in Gaza are high, and it reflects Europe's desire to play a bigger role in solving the conflict between Israel and Palestine. The discussions in Egypt also highlighted the need for international cooperation to find a peaceful solution.
Macron’s comments could have a major impact on other European countries and their approach to Palestinian statehood. Since France is an important member of the European Union, its recognition of Palestine could encourage other nations to do the same. The situation in Gaza remains unstable, and it is expected that further talks will take place to decide the next steps.
