The concept of a Palestinian state faces significant obstacles due to the political landscape in the Middle East. The unlikelihood stems from the political dynamics within Jordan, where Palestinians make up a majority but are unlikely to hold elections due to risks to the ruling family. Additionally, the unity government formed by Hamas and Fatah, under the influence of China, raises doubts about the potential for peace and stability in the region. This development challenges the previous belief that the Palestinian Authority could serve as a counterbalance to Hamas, thereby complicating the prospects for the establishment of a Palestinian state.
