The Canadian Prime Minister’s office announced that Canada now officially recognizes the State of Palestine. They’re also working closely with international partners to support the idea of a two-state solution. Trudeau mentioned that Israel’s continued settlement building in the West Bank is making it harder to create a Palestinian state. He also pointed out that Israel’s actions in Gaza have caused the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians and led to a devastating, preventable famine. These actions go against international law.

The Australian government released a statement on the 21st saying it now recognizes the State of Palestine. They mentioned that Australia, along with Canada and the UK, is officially acknowledging Palestine to help move forward the idea of a two-state solution. As the Palestinian National Authority works on its reforms, Australia said it might take more steps later on, like setting up diplomatic ties or opening an embassy.
Israeli National Security Minister Ben Gvir said that when the UK, Canada, and Australia recognized Palestine, Israel needed to act quickly. He believes Israel should immediately declare sovereignty over the West Bank and completely eliminate what he calls the "Palestinian terrorist regime." Gvir mentioned he plans to bring a proposal on establishing sovereignty in the West Bank to the next Cabinet meeting.

For many years, it has been difficult to establish a Palestinian state, even though most countries recognize Palestine as a state. Since the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians flared up again on October 7, 2023, Israel’s military attacks in Gaza have killed over 65,000 Palestinians, causing a serious humanitarian crisis. During this time, Israel has gotten support from the United States, but many other countries have pulled away. The global push for a two-state solution has only grown stronger.
