Global divisions deepen as more nations back Palestinian State

Momentum is growing for international recognition of a Palestinian State, even as the United States and Israel strongly oppose the move. On Monday, Britain formally recognised Palestine, following similar steps by Canada and Australia. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said the recognition “keeps alive the possibility of peace,” while reaffirming support for efforts to free Israeli hostages. As of September 2025, 150 of the 193 UN member states — over 78% — now recognise Palestine as a sovereign state. The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) had already granted Palestine non-member observer status in 2012. However, U.S. President Donald Trump dismissed the endorsements, calling them a “reward for terrorism.” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was even more forceful, declaring: “There will be no Palestinian State west of the Jordan River.” Netanyahu argued that recognising Palestine undermines peace, while pledging to expand […]

Netanyahu, Western Leaders Clash as UK, Canada, Australia Recognise State of Palestine

The governments of the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia yesterday formally recognised the State of Palestine, escalating diplomatic tensions with Israel as war rages in Gaza. Portugal is expected to follow suit. The coordinated announcement came after months of warnings that recognition would follow if Israel failed to commit to a peace process that allowed for a two-state solution. Starmer: “A Step Toward Peace” UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer defended the decision, saying it was necessary to preserve the hope of peace amid Gaza’s humanitarian crisis. “In the face of the growing horror in the Middle East, we are acting to keep alive the possibility of peace and a two-state solution,” Starmer said in a post on X. He stressed that recognition “is not a reward for Hamas,” adding that the group “can have no role in government, no role […]

Nigeria Backs Palestinian President’s UN Video Address After U.S. Visa Denial

New York, Sept. 20, 2025 — Nigeria joined 144 other United Nations member states on Saturday in supporting a resolution that allows Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to address the UN General Assembly via a pre-recorded video message after the United States denied visas to his delegation.

Netanyahu Calls Albanese “Weak” and “Betrayed Israel”

A major diplomatic rift has emerged between Israel and Australia after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly denounced Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese—calling him weak and accusing him of betraying both Israel and Australia’s Jewish community. The sharp rebuke follows Canberra's announcement that it will formally recognize a Palestinian state ahead of the UN General Assembly in September. Netanyahu's Stark Message On social media, Netanyahu declared: “History will remember Albanese for what he is: a weak politician who betrayed Israel and abandoned Australia’s Jews.” This accusation inflamed relations, especially after Israel retaliated by revoking visas for Australian diplomats to the Palestinian Authority—an apparent response to Australia’s visa cancellation for far-right Israeli lawmaker Simcha Rothman. Australian PM Anthony Albanese responded calmly, stating he had respectfully informed Netanyahu of Australia's intentions ahead of time. He emphasized that the recognition aligns with global sentiment […]
