European Nations to Recognize Palestinian State

Several European nations, including Ireland, Spain, and Norway, have announced their intention to recognize a Palestinian state on May 28th. The decision aims to support efforts to secure a ceasefire in Israel's conflict with Hamas. While receiving support from the Palestinian Authority and Hamas, this move has strained relations between Israel and Europe, prompting Israel to recall its ambassadors. This recognition reflects differing perspectives within the European Union, where only a few members have formally acknowledged a Palestinian state.
