Portugal May Recognise Palestinian State at UN in September
Portugal is considering officially recognising the State of Palestine during the United Nations General Assembly in September, Prime Minister Luis Montenegro's office announced on Thursday. The move comes amid growing international concern over the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where a UN-backed agency has warned of a 'worst-case famine scenario.' Portugal's government said the decision follows 'multiple discussions' with European and international partners, as the situation in the region continues to deteriorate. Officials pointed to both the humanitarian crisis and growing fears over the potential annexation of Palestinian territories by Israel. If confirmed, Portugal will join countries like France, Britain, and Canada, which have all signaled plans to recognise a Palestinian state this year. French President Emmanuel Macron recently said his country would take the step in September, hoping to build international momentum for Palestinian recognition. Portuguese President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa said the decision was made carefully and in coordination with European allies, reflecting Portugal's concern for both the humanitarian situation and the future of the peace process.
