UN experts called on the world to recognize Palestine to ensure peace in the Middle East

The expert group of the United Nations called on all countries to recognize the Palestinian state as a step towards peace in the Middle East.

The UN special rapporteur on human rights in the Palestinian territories and other experts expressed their belief that the recognition of the Palestinian state is an important step in recognizing the rights of the Palestinian people to freedom and independence.

They believe that this will contribute to lasting peace in the region, starting with an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and avoiding further military conflicts. The continued recognition of Palestine as a state remains an essential condition for peace and security for both Palestine and Israel, they stress.

According to experts, Palestine has already been recognized by 146 UN member states.

Israel, for its part, has repeatedly expressed its condemnation of the recognition of a Palestinian state, arguing that it would only strengthen Hamas.

Some countries, such as Spain, Ireland and Norway, have officially recognized a Palestinian state, prompting a backlash from Israel. Also, the Slovenian government approved the recognition of the Palestinian state and sent this decision to the parliament for approval.
