“Today’s announcement by Spain, Ireland

As Spain, Norway & Ireland declared they would recognized the Palestinian state as a key step towards peace, the radical Israeli govt announced more illegal measures that kill all its prospects. We value the decision of our European partners & condemn Israel’s illegal measures

“We know that this initiative won’t bring back the past and the lives lost in Palestine, but we believe that it will give the Palestinians two things that are very important for their present and their future: dignity and hope,” Sánchez said.

Israel's reaction to the announcement by Norway, Spain, and Ireland, that they formally recognise the State of Palestine, shows again that Israel seeks annexation and permanent occupation over Palestine, as the lawyers for Palestine said in the ICJ on 19 February:

Ireland, Norway and Spain are expected to recognise Palestine as an independent state, in co-ordinated announcements this morning.

139 of 193 UN member states already do recognise Palestine

There is famine in #Gaza .
This could not be more serious.

His country, his administration, his family name for all time, the international rules-based order and Western democracy.
