Sharjah 24 – WAM: His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, welcomed the intention of Malta, Canada, Australia, Andorra, Finland, Iceland, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Portugal, and San Marino to recognise the State of Palestine.

A historic step toward justice for Palestine

He affirmed that these positions represent historic steps that reflect growing international support for the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, particularly their right to establish an independent, sovereign Palestinian state.

Global momentum for peace and security

His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed emphasised that the increasing number of countries expressing their intent to take this step constitutes a positive momentum toward advancing international efforts aimed at achieving a just and lasting peace. These efforts contribute to reviving the political process to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, strengthen peace and security in the region, and advance the aspirations of its people for development and prosperity.

Call for broader international recognition

Furthermore, Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed called on the international community to take similar steps and recognise the State of Palestine, stressing that this reflects a moral, humanitarian, and legal responsibility. He noted that such recognition would support the realisation of a comprehensive and just solution to the conflict and enhance prospects for sustainable peace in the region.
