French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that France will officially recognize the State of Palestine at the UN General Assembly in September, making it the first G7 nation to do so. The move comes amid mounting international outrage over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and stalled peace efforts, and is intended to pressure other Western countries to follow suit. The decision has been met with strong condemnation from Israel and the United States, who argue it could embolden Hamas and undermine peace negotiations. Supporters, including several European and Arab nations, hail the move as a historic step toward a two-state solution. Macron's announcement highlights deepening divisions among Western allies over how to address the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
