Britain may recognize Palestine as a state

According to The Times, the UK is preparing to recognize Palestine as an independent state in the near future. However, this decision is expected to be announced after Donald Trump's visit to the kingdom concludes.

Sources say the prime minister decided to postpone the matter until the US president leaves the country. This step is explained by Starmer's concern that the topic could become the main topic of discussion at a joint press conference scheduled for September 18.

According to Reuters, Washington strongly opposes the official recognition of Palestine. It is noted that such a step by London could cool relations between the two countries.

According to reports, Britain is expected to announce its decision ahead of the UN General Assembly session starting in New York. At this meeting, it is said that France, Canada, and Australia can also recognize Palestine as a state.
