Kir Stamor To change the government’s policy, he will go to his emergency cabinet meeting this afternoon as part of immense political pressure and Identify a Palestinian kingdom.
Discussion in the cabinet meeting will be part of a comprehensive plan for peace, which the Prime Minister will prepare for senior ministers. Sir Keir will not make public the details of Europe-led peace plan for the Middle East-yet he has placed together with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Frederick Merz-His so-called E3 partners.
But, in the end, the question that will bother Sir Keer, it will not be whether he wants to recognize or not Palestine as a country, But determining that formal recognition will have the maximum effect.
This is the reason that today’s cabinet meeting will be about setting up a route for recognition instead of immediately.
The problem is that identifying a state is a time. Unlike a Brexit Agreement or a business deal, some details are not going back to go back to go back – with it, there is no place for error.
This means, to do this for Sir Kir, they have to ensure that it will achieve the goals he wants. The issue would be whether to solve the political problem is more important than using it to achieve peace.
Current policy
The current policy of the Oslo agreement is to support a two-state solution and to identify a Palestinian state as part of the peace process of a conversation-without specifying when it will happen.
Sir Keer has moved forward and said in a strong statement on Thursday. A Palestinian kingdom is “an unqualified right” Of Palestinian people.
For some, it was taken as a strong sign that he is getting closer to real formal recognition.
The reason for this is that once a state is formally recognized, it attains diplomatic status and can be recognized by international bodies in principle – so this step will not be purely symbolic.
In addition, the historical status of Britain as a pre -colonial power that effectively created a modern state Israel A symbolic weight is added by recognizing a Palestinian state through the Balfor Declaration.
Political pressure
President Emmanuel Macron last week to announce that France will be the first G7 country to recognize the state of Palestinian, which has increased pressure on Sir Keer to follow the suit.
Already his cabinet has been divided on the issue, the figures like Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood and Deputy Prime Minister Angela Reneer insist on recognition, while other people like Chanel Raves are closely associated with Israel’s Labor Friends (LFI), who doubt more than an early step.
Recognition is supported by a clear majority in the labor party, and Jeremy Corbin’s new party On the left- which has made Israel-Palestine Its primary policy field – adds even more pressure.
with More than 250 MPs from nine separate parties signing a letter Supporting the proposal for this in Westminster is also clearly a hunger.
But the other side weigh Israel’s Labor Friends (LFI)Which is a group that is more powerful than the requirement within labor to correct the damage to antisemitism that was allowed to flourish under the leadership of Corbin. It also supports several senior cabinet members.
LFI supports a two-state solution and the final recognition of a Palestinian state, but warns that if the UK goes to quick recognition, it will ruin the opportunity to maximize the effect.
All about Trump
In the weekend, Minister James Murray said that 140 countries have recognized a Palestinian state, but it has no effect on the peace process.
There is a feeling that it survives Britain’s declining effects with Israel, although Benjamin Netanyahu’s attitude towards international criticism that the ship may already leave.
The problem was that US State Secretary Marco Rubio was very important for France’s statement last week, and there was speculation that the Stamor recognition did not want to broke the question. Until he was bilateral with Donald Trump in Scotland Outside the first way.
However, the meeting produced a wonder with the US President, which is a very different line for his foreign department. Talking about Palestinian state, Trump said: “I am not going to take a post, I have no objection [Starmer] To take a situation. ,
But the UK government now understands that the only way to bring Israel back into line and to resume is to force everyone’s hand to the administration of Trump for the peace process.
There is a danger that if he proceeds with the recognition of the Palestinian state, he may lose that final impact on the White House.
But in the end Sir Keir is a Prime Minister who is honored abroad, but losing control of the house. He can decide that political problems accreditation resolves domestic, whether it has little or no effect on the peace process.
