Kushtrim Istrefi, an assistant professor at Utrecht University, says recognition of Palestine as a state by Norway, Spain and Ireland is a result of Israel’s war on Gaza. He says these recognitions send a “clear message” to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that a two-state solution, and a peaceful resolution of the ongoing conflict “cannot be achieved” under the current circumstances.

“We live in a moment in the history of the world in which doing the minimum is both heroic and insufficient.” Yolanda Diaz, Spain’s Second Deputy Prime Minister, welcomes Spain’s recognition of a Palestinian state and says that the effort shouldn’t stop there. She calls on the EU to support investigations into possible war crimes and to review arms sales to Israel.

The government of Norway has announced it is formally recognising an independent Palestinian state, which will enter into force next Tuesday. Israel has strongly opposed the move. Several other European countries including Ireland and Spain are expected to follow suit. The Norwegian Prime Minister says this sends a strong message on where the country stands on Israel’s devastating war on Gaza. Israel has recalled its envoys to Ireland and Norway in response. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government has banned Al Jazeera in Israel, that’s why we’re reporting from the Jordanian capital, Amman, where Imran Khan is standing by.
