French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that France will formally recognize the state of Palestine at the United Nations General Assembly in September, making it the first G7 country to do so. Macron’s move comes amid mounting frustration over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and stalled peace efforts, and is intended to pressure other European nations 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. Some European leaders, including Italy’s Giorgia Meloni and the UK’s Keir Starmer, have declined to join Macron, warning that early recognition could be counterproductive. The announcement has intensified debate over the path to Middle East peace and highlighted deep divisions among Western allies.
