The United Kingdom's official recognition of the State of Palestine, following Canada, Australia, and Portugal, has resonated widely in public opinion. Meanwhile, after the UK's recognition of Palestine as a state, the Palestinian embassy was opened today in the capital, London.
"THIS HISTORIC STEP IS A SIGN OF OUR SUPPORT FOR THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE"
After announcing that they officially recognized the State of Palestine, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer wrote a letter to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to inform him of this decision. In the letter addressed to Abbas, stating that they recognized the State of Palestine, Starmer expressed, "This historic step is a sign of our support for the Palestinian people's right to self-determination and statehood."
Pointing out that a two-state solution is the only way to achieve lasting peace in the region, Starmer stated, "I appreciate the commitments you have made regarding reforms, and I characterize the support I will provide while fulfilling these commitments for the construction of the State of Palestine."
"WE LOOK FORWARD TO A NEW FRIENDSHIP PERIOD BETWEEN THE PEOPLE OF THE UK AND PALESTINE"
Starmer emphasized that the UK has a historic role in the Middle East and stated: "Britain supported the principle of a homeland for the Jews in 1917, while stating that the civil and religious rights of non-Jewish communities should not be harmed in any way. By making this decision today, I reaffirm the UK's commitment to a Palestinian State for the Palestinian people and our enduring support for a two-state solution where Palestinians and Israelis live side by side in peace and security. We look forward to a new era of friendship and cooperation between the people of the UK and Palestine."
Starmer noted that UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper would meet with her Palestinian counterpart to advance the process of establishing diplomatic relations, stating, "I look forward to building a constructive and close relationship between our states."
