Pedro Sánchez obtains the support of Norway for the recognition of the Palestinian state
The first stop of Pedro Sánchez’s European tour to push for the recognition of the Palestinian state has yielded positive results in Norway.
The Norwegian Prime Minister, Jonas Gahr Store, has expressed his country’s readiness to recognize the Palestinian state and has praised the initiative of Pedro Sánchez, despite not setting specific deadlines.
Coordination with Madrid
Madrid and Oslo will agree on the steps to take to advance this recognition, maintaining continuous contact to assess the dynamic situation of the issue.
Spanish commitment
Pedro Sánchez has reiterated Spain’s readiness to recognize the Palestinian state as soon as possible, calling for forceful actions by the international community in this regard.
Upcoming tour stops
After Norway, Pedro Sánchez will visit Dublin to raise the same initiative with Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris, and is scheduled to meet leaders from Portugal, Slovenia and Belgium next week.
Isabel Díaz Ayuso criticizes the initiative to recognize the Palestinian state
The president of Madrid has departed from the line marked by Pedro Sánchez, criticizing the decision to reward Hamas with the recognition of Palestine as a state.
Isabel Díaz Ayuso has expressed concern about the possible impact of this decision on security, stating that it can lead to Palestinians becoming showmen for terrorist groups.
In addition, he has accused Pedro Sánchez of seeking to evade the internal problems of the State through his European tour.
Sánchez has asked the Popular Party to clarify its position, recalling the support received for its recognition proposal during its appearance in Congress.
