SC junks PIL seeking ban on export of arms to Israel
Monday, 9 September 2024 The Supreme Court of India dismissed a PIL demanding the cancellation of arms export licenses to Israel, asserting that foreign policy is exclusively under the Union government's jurisdiction. Petitioners argued that India's actions violated the Genocide Convention amid allegations against Israel for genocide in Gaza. The court chose not to intervene.
In a seismic shift in foreign policy, Canada has announced it will formally recognise the State of Palestine at the 80th UN General Assembly session in September 2025. Prime Minister Mark Carney declared the move essential to preserve hopes of a two-state solution—calling current efforts "eroded before our eyes." The decision follows similar recognitions by France and the UK, creating a powerful bloc pushing for Palestinian statehood. However, Carney made the recognition conditional—insisting on PA reforms, 2026 elections excluding Hamas, and full demilitarisation. Israel has blasted the decision, calling it a "distorted campaign of international pressure" and warning it legitimises Hamas's October 7 atrocities. Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas hailed the move as “historic.” The tension between international recognition and Israeli resistance could reshape global diplomacy on the conflict.
