I have just spoken with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський. Now more than ever, we must remember that Europe’s security, freedom, and future are closely tied to Ukraine’s fate. That is why, together with our partners, we continue to support the Ukrainian people.

With #Gaza plagued by famine and destruction, and the prospect of a Palestinian State under greater threat than ever, #France and Saudi Arabia will bring the international community together at the United Nations on Monday to save the two-state solution.

Consistent with its historic commitment to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, I have decided that France will recognize the State of Palestine. I will make this solemn announcement before the United Nations General Assembly this coming September.

Hamas has always rejected the two-state solution. By recognizing #Palestine, #France is disagreeing with that terrorist movement. It is agreeing with those on the side of peace as opposed to those on the side of war.

Hamas must be disarmed and permanently excluded from all governance of #Gaza and #Palestine. The Palestinian Authority must be profoundly reformed. The Arab countries must normalize their relations with Israel.

After months of work under the aegis of France and Saudi Arabia, the whole international community has gathered in New York. Fifteen States, the Arab League and the European Union are putting forward concrete proposals to bring about the two-state solution.

"We cannot wait any longer, as time is not on peace’s side. We cannot hope for a lasting ceasefire without sketching out a shared vision for what comes after the war in #Gaza, without sketching out a political horizon and an alternative to a permanent state of war." Jean-Noël Barrot

The UK has today become part of the movement created by France to recognize the State of Palestine. Together, through this major decision and our combined efforts, we are countering the endless cycle of violence and reopening the prospect of peace in the region.

#France is launching a collective call in New York with 14 other countries: we express our willingness to recognize the State of #Palestine and invite those who have not yet done so to join us.

Delighted to talk to Rachel Swann, Chief Constable of Derbyshire Police, about shared priorities in policing & #security cooperation. We discussed the 🇬🇧 community-policing model based on proximity & trust, & the value of inclusive leadership in building representative institutions.

Faced with an urgent humanitarian crisis, we just conducted a food airdrop over Gaza. I thank our Jordanian, Emirati, and German partners for their support, as well as our armed forces for their dedication. But airdrops are not enough.
