Palestine is on the verge of obtaining state status At a time when significant events are taking place in the political arena, the Palestinian National Authority is preparing to open a new historical chapter for its future. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
At the upcoming meeting of the UN General Assembly in New York in September, the possibility of the Palestinian Authority officially obtaining state status is being discussed. This was reported by Al Araby Al Jadeed citing its sources.
According to the source, the Palestinian leadership is considering the option of President Mahmoud Abbas personally announcing this important decision from the UN podium. If this decision is made, new processes are expected to begin in regional and international politics.
Additionally, it is planned for Abbas to make a constitutional statement before the official decision. In this statement, the fundamental legislative foundation of the state, its borders, and governance system are expected to be clearly defined.
The exact date for the Palestinian National Council elections must also be announced. The source emphasized that the constitutional statement will be signed by the president, formalizing the state borders and legal foundations.
The idea of granting Palestine full state status was first considered in 2015, but at that time it was left uncommented by the president, and the process was halted. Recently, however, initiatives to recognize Palestine in the international arena have become more active.
At the end of July, foreign ministers from 15 countries expressed their support for this initiative. Among these countries are Australia, Andorra, Ireland, Iceland, Spain, Canada, Luxembourg, Malta, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, San Marino, Slovenia, Finland, and France.
If this statement is announced at the UN in September, Palestine's international standing will significantly increase, and a new chapter will open in the regional geopolitical environment. This could provide a new impetus for long-standing disputes and negotiations.
