[Regnum] Russia recognized the State of Palestine even before the deaths of 65,000 of its residents. This was announced by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Vershinin on September 22. "We did this without waiting for the current human tragedy and monstrous catastrophe that has claimed the lives of at least 65,000 Palestinians," the diplomat noted at the international conference on the peaceful settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict at UN headquarters in New York. Vershinin recalled that Russia, among 149 states, has long recognized the Palestinians' legitimate rights to return and self-determination, and their just aspiration for their own state. On September 22, France became one of three G7 countries to recognize Palestinian statehood. French President Emmanuel Macron officially announced this at the 80th session of the UN General Assembly.

The day before, the governments of Australia, the United Kingdom, and Canada announced their recognition of Palestinian statehood. Portugal also announced a similar decision. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, for his part, promised to reciprocate the recognition of Palestine by a number of Western countries. More from regnum.ru "Fools rush in..."
