UK set to recognize Palestinian state, Lammy says aim is to help two-state solution
LONDON: Prime Minister Keir Starmer is expected to announce on Sunday Britain’s recognition of a Palestinian state in a break with long-standing policy despite stiff opposition from Israel and disapproval from the United States, the UK’s closest ally. Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy confirmed that Starmer would announce his decision later on Sunday and said any recognition should be seen as part of a peace process leading to an eventual two-state solution. Britain is expected to join more than 140 other members of the United Nations which have recognized a Palestinian state.
