After France and Britain, another important country has started considering recognizing an independent Palestinian state.
According to a TRT report, the Canadian government is considering whether to recognize a Palestinian state and what its conditions will be.
Canadian media reports said that no decision has been made in this regard so far, but Prime Minister Mark Carney is expected to call an important cabinet meeting to discuss the situation in the Middle East.
The aforementioned media reports came after Mark Carney discussed the situation in Gaza and recognizing a Palestinian state with his British counterpart, Keir Starmer.
On Monday, Canadian Foreign Minister Anita Anand reaffirmed Ottawa’s commitment to a two-state solution.
Anita Anand had said that despite the complexity of the situation, our collective presence here reflects strong international support for a negotiated solution that ensures Palestinian self-determination and Israeli security.
Last week, French President Emmanuel Macron said that Paris would recognize Palestine during the UN General Assembly in September.
Recently, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said that his government would recognize a Palestinian state if Israel failed to take steps to end its massacre in Gaza.
Israel ridiculed the British move, saying that it would be a reward for Hamas.
It should be noted that Palestine is currently recognized by 149 of the 193 member states of the UN, which is a large number.
