UN experts on Monday urged all countries to follow the example of the 146 UN member states that have recognized the State of Palestine.
“This recognition is an important recognition of the rights of the Palestinian people and their struggle and suffering for freedom and independence,” the experts said in a statement, stressing the need for Palestine to be able to enjoy full self-determination, including the ability to exist, determine its own destiny, and develop freely as a safe and secure people.
The experts said: “This is a precondition for lasting peace in Palestine and the entire Middle East – starting with the immediate declaration of a ceasefire in Gaza and no further military incursions into Rafah.”
