The Palestinian ambassador to Canada says she feels Ottawa is on the brink of officially recognizing statehood for her people, as she also takes note of tougher language from Canada on Israel’s actions in Gaza.

I agree, collectively Global Governments should be harder on Israel.

That does not mean that official recognition is not a step towards that goal, or an unimportant issue.

My issue is canada , france and uk ulterior motives and not the action of recognizing Palestine as a state

For France, this roadmap should guarantee Israel’s security and regional integration as well as meet the the legitimate aspiration of the Palestinians to have their own State. We must therefore build a robust and credible framework for the “day after” in Gaza: work to disarm and sideline Hamas, which should no longer be a threat to Israel, establish credible governance and reform the Palestinian Authority. The United Nations and its agencies have an important role to play in this process.

Look at how France position is about Palestinians state. No acknowledging of the occupation, preceding the occupier security over the occupied security . Ask for Palestinians to disarms without any security guarantees.

I also don't trust the Palestinian authority all they kept doing is crushing all oppositions, collaborate with Israel while doing nothing to protect Palestinians against settler violence . An election is needed for the Palestinian authority that represent the real will of the west bankers

The recognition should be unconditional and be transparent about what kind of pressure should be imposed on Israel who refuse any Palestinians state
