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 solutionācalling 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 conditionalāinsisting 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 āhistoric.ā The tension between international recognition and Israeli resistance could reshape global diplomacy on the conflict.
