CAIRO, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) — Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Abu al-Gheit on Sunday welcomed the recognition of the independent State of Palestine by Britain, Canada and Australia.
The recognition “corrects a historical mistake that has persisted for many years,” he wrote on the social network X, adding that this step also meets the demands of the people of these countries to support the Palestinians’ right to independence and a dignified life.
“We expect to receive more significant international recognition in the near future,” said A.A. al-Gheit.
Earlier on Sunday, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said in a video message that the UK "formally recognises the State of Palestine" and called for a return to the principle of "two states for two peoples."
Australia recognises the legitimate and long-standing aspirations of the Palestinian people to establish their own state, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Foreign Minister Penny Wong said in a joint statement.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney also announced recognition of the State of Palestine. –0–
