Norway's prime minister says Norway is formally recognizing Palestine as a state. Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre said Wednesday, “There cannot be peace in the Middle East if there is no recognition.' Gahr Støre said the Scandinavian country will recognize a Palestinian state as of May 28.
Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre said on Wednesday: “There cannot be peace in the Middle East if there is no recognition.”Several European Union countries have in the past weeks indicated that they plan to make the recognition, arguing a two-state solution is essential for lasting peace in the region.
“The terror has been committed by Hamas and militant groups who are not supporters of a two-state solution and the state of Israel,” the Norwegian government leader said.The move comes as Israeli forces have led assaults on the northern and southern edges of the Gaza Strip in May, causing a new exodus of hundreds of thousands of people, and sharply restricted the flow of aid, raising the risk of famine.
Since then, “the Palestinians have taken important steps towards a two-state solution,” the Norwegian government said.
