Malta announces to recognize State of Palestine next month
Maltese Prime Minister Robert Abela announced on Sunday that Malta will recognize the State of Palestine next month.
The announcement came during a political event in which Abela raised local and global matters, with a particular focus on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, according to Malta Today.
"We cannot close our eyes to this human tragedy that is getting worse every day," Abela was quoted by the newspaper as saying in reference to Israel's brutal bombardment of Gaza, which killed nearly 54,000 Palestinians, the majority of whom were women and children.
