Spanish official pushes for Palestine recognitio­n

-

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said that Spain has “publicly committed to recognizin­g Palestine as a state as soon as possible when the conditions are appropriat­e and in a way that can have the most positive impact to the peace process.”

Sánchez was in the Norwegian capital, Oslo, as part of a tour that also includes Ireland, to push for peace in Gaza and seek support for recognitio­n of Palestine.

His Norwegian counterpar­t, Jonas Gahr Støre, said that “Norway stands ready to recognize the state of Palestine and to recognize this place, appropriat­e place in the United Nations.”
