France and 14 other Western nations called on countries worldwide to move to recognise a Palestinian state, France's top diplomat said Wednesday.

 

"In New York, together with 14 other countries, France is issuing a collective appeal: we express our desire to recognise the State of Palestine and invite those who have not yet done so to join us," French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot wrote on X account, following a conference aimed at reviving the two-state solution for “Israel” and the Palestinians.

 

The countries are: Andorra, Australia, Canada, Spain, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, San Marino, Slovenia
