OTTAWA, Sept. 21 (Xinhua) — Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney on Sunday announced Canada's recognition of the State of Palestine.
According to the statement, the Canadian side did this as part of a coordinated international effort to preserve the possibility of realizing the “two states for two peoples” solution.
“This recognition is fully consistent with the principles of self-determination and fundamental human rights enshrined in the UN Charter, as well as Canada’s consistent policy over many generations,” the document reads.
As noted in the statement, the current Israeli government is systematically working to prevent the future establishment of a Palestinian state. Israel is pursuing an intransigent policy of settlement expansion in the West Bank, which is illegal under international law.
Israel's ongoing attacks on the Gaza Strip, in violation of international law, have resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians, the displacement of more than a million people, and caused a catastrophic famine that could have been prevented, M. Carney said in a statement.
