Canada plans to recognize a Palestinian state during a meeting in September United nationsThe Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced on Wednesday.
“We work with others to preserve the possibility of a two-state solution, the facts on site, the local deaths, the local settlements, not to allow the expropriation on site on site so that this is not possible that this is not possible,” said Carney.
Carney said the step was subject to reforms to the commitment of the Palestinian authority, including the obligations to reform his government and the department of parliamentary elections next year, in which Hamas cannot play any role “.
Israel criticized Carney’s position and called it a “reward for Hamas”, which harms the efforts to achieve an armistice and to free the remaining hostages that the terrorist group still received after its attack against the Jewish state after October 7, 2023.

“Israel rejects the Kanada Prime Minister’s declaration,” said Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a declaration. “The change in the position of Canadian government At this point, a reward for Hamas is and harms the efforts to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza and a framework for the publication of the hostages. “
Carney’s announcement came after France recognized a Palestinian state last week, and a day after Great Britain said he would recognize the state at the United Nations if the Israel Hamas War in Gaza had not stopped until then.
The French President Emmanuel Macron, who spoke to Carney before Canada’s announcement, said that the recognition of a Palestinian state would “revive a view of peace in the region”.
The announcements of some of the closest allies of Israel reflect the growing international outrage over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and add more pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government.

“Canada condemns the fact that the Israeli government has unfolded a disaster in Gaza,” said Carney.
The White House also rejects the decision to recognize a Palestinian state, and says President Donald Trump Israel agrees that it “rewarded Hamas”.
“As the President said, he would reward Hamas if he recognized a Palestinian state, and he does not believe that they should be rewarded,” said an official from the White House. “So he won’t do that. President Trump’s focus is on feeding people [in Gaza]. “
Trump also wrote on social media that Canada’s decision to recognize a Palestinian state “will make it very difficult for us to conclude a trade agreement with them”.
The US special representative in the Middle East Steve Witkoff is to travel to Israel on Thursday to discuss the situation in Gaza. Trump said this week that he was expecting centers to be being set up to feed more people in the region.
