Moving to the UK for the recognition of the Palestinian state is a diplomatic crowd for the revival of the peace process

The proclamation of Prime Minister Sir Keira Starmer that Britain recognizes Palestinian statehood is a major change in the UK foreign policy.

He suggested postponing the recognition when Israel has taken “significant steps to stop the horrific gas situation, agree to cease the fire and make a long -term, sustainable world, reviving the perspective of a two -state decision.”

The direct deviation of Israel from his statement meant that Starmer’s writers could start work on what he would say at the UN General Assembly in September. According to a high -ranking British official, the UK’s recognition looks “irreversibly”.

Starmer will not expect that in the near future the change in the UK policy is produced by an independent Palestinian state – in terms of many Israelis, the best time for it would be, but the intention, according to diplomatic sources, will expand the possibilities of moderate on both sides, Israelis and Palestinians. British hopes that they will be able to twist them by believing that peace may be possible.

It will be not easy, not just because of how Hamas killed about 1,200 people, including hundreds of Israeli civilians, and took hostages on October 7, 2023, after which there was a vengeful response from Israel, who died tens of thousands of civilians and left gas in ruins.

This is also because every attempt has not been made. The years of peace talks in the 1990s ended with bloodshed. Every attempt to revive them since then has fallen apart.

Israel’s refusal occurred a few minutes after Keir Starmer finished performing on the old -rit. Later, in the evening, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted a tough denomination on social media.

“Starmer rewards Hamas’s horrific terrorism and punishes his victims. The Jihadist state on the Israeli border is threatening Britain today.”

“The reserve against the terrorists is always not possible. It won’t work. It won’t happen.”

Netanyahu denies that Israel has caused hunger and disaster in gas. If he accepted the UK conditions for delay, his government broke up. It depends on the support of the ultra nationalist extremists who want to attach the occupied territories and make Palestinians, and do not give them independence.

But Netanyahu is not their prisoner. He created a career that opposes a two -state decision, the idea that peace could be built by creating an independent Palestinian state with Israel. Earlier this month, he stated that the Palestinian state would become a “starting platform” for more October attempts to destroy Israel.

Netanyahu hopes for strong support from the US government. His position is that the recognition of the Palestinian state is now rewarding Hamas’s terrorism.

Donald Trump told reporters when he flew back to the United States after his golf in Scotland, which did not support the UK step.

The problem of Palestinian sovereignty can be another factor that hacked transatlantic relations.

Until the last few weeks, Keir Starmer was not convinced that time was correct to recognize Palestine. But photos of Palestinian children in Gaza, who were starving to death, were the last point after so many murders and destruction.

The attitude was hardened into Downing and in foreign service, as well as in the Labor Party and more widely in the UK.

The UK’s decision to join France in Palestine’s recognition is another sign of an increase in Israel’s diplomatic insulation. Two of his major Western allies, the UK and France, both permanent members of the UN Security Council, rejected Israel’s attempt to block Palestine’s recognition when the General Assembly met in New York in September.

In New York, immediately after the statement of Starmer David Lami, the British Foreign Minister received a large round of applause when he announced the UK’s decision at the UN Conference on a two-state decision and recognition of the Palestinian state.

He was dismissed that Palestinian independence could be deadly for Israel.

“There is no contradiction between Israel’s security support and the support of Palestinian statehood. Indeed, the other way around.”

“Let me understand: the refusal of the Netanyahu government from the two-state decision is wrongly morally morally, and this is wrong.”

The British official stated that the atmosphere was electrical when Lami told the delegates that the UK proclamation was being “with the hand of history on our shoulders”. Lami continued to delve into the imperial past of Britain in Palestine, which is deeply intertwined with the roots of the conflict between the Jews and the Arabs to control the British Earth.

Britain captured Jerusalem from the Ottoman Empire in 1917 and controlled Palestine until it was exhausted in 1948 and did not come out of the ideas to fight the full -scale war between the Arabs and the Jews, it postponed the UN responsibility and left Palestine. Immediately the first Prime Minister of Israel David Ben Gurion declared independence, and Israel defeated the Arab armies.

In the UN, David Lami reminded of how Arthur Balfur, his predecessor as the Foreign Minister in 1917, signed a Pishutsky letter promising “viewing the institution in Palestine a National House for the Jewish people.”

But the document, known as the Balfur Declaration, also stated that “nothing will be done, which can prevent civil and religious rights of unpun by Palestine.” It didn’t use the word Arab, but it was meant.

Lami said Britain could be proud of how the foundations of Israel helped, but the promise of the Palestinians, according to Lami, is not preserved, and that “it is a historical injustice that continues to unfold.”

Conflict Britain promise and formed a conflict. The traveler returned to Palestine in the 1920s, would find tension and violence depressing.

The way the UK hopes to end the misery in Gaza, to create peace in the Middle East and to correct the historical injustice that Lami described Lami is the revival of a two-state decision.

The conference in New York, at which he spoke, was ruled by France and Saudi Arabia. He prepared seven pages aimed at creating a way forward to revive a two -state decision that includes condemnation of Arab states Hamas and his October 7 attacks on Israel.

A window for peace through a two-state decision seemed closed after the collapse of the peace process, which began with true hope in the 1990s.

The UK’s decision to recognize Palestine is a diplomatic swamp to try to reopen it.
