European countries announce recognition of Palestine at high-level conference in New York

Several European leaders announced their countries’ recognition of Palestine during a high-level meeting held Monday on the margins of the UN General Assembly in New York, framing the move as a historic step toward ending the war in Gaza and advancing a two-state solution.

The France and Saudi Arabia-led international conference, formally titled the High-Level International Conference for the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution, brought together international leaders who urged immediate steps to end the war in Gaza and advance a peaceful resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
