Cabinet ministers and third of MPs call on Starmer to recognise state of Palestine | Foreign policy

Keir Starmer is under the intense pressure of Israel’s highest -level cabinet ministers and more than one third of the deputies to move faster to recognize the Palestinian state in response to Israel’s assistance against hunger civilians in Gaza.

Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and Interior Minister Yette Cooper, the government, together with France, should lead the Palestinian state.

The Prime Minister is faced with an increasing oyster to act between Israel’s international screams on the actions of Israel, and charities have doubled in the last two weeks of serious malnutrition among children under the age of five in Gaza.

Britain, France and Germany said that Gaza should “end the human disaster,” and called Israel to “immediately remove restrictions on aid flow”. “It is unacceptable to hide basic humanitarian aid to the civilian population,” he said in a joint statement.

After a call with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Starmer said, “The prisoner of the hostages, the hunger and denial of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people, the increasing violence from extremist settlements and the disproportionate military raise of Israel in Gaza”.

He said that he was “definite ve in the support of recognizing the Palestinian state, but“ ultimately, it should be part of a wider plan that resulted in a two -state solution and a permanent security for the Palestinians and Israelis.

The statement came to Donald Trump to Scotland for a four -day visit to Starmer on Monday. Macron increased the pressure on Starmer this week by explaining that he would recognize a Palestinian state at the UN General Assembly in France.

On Friday, Trump rejected Macron’s movement by saying “does not carry weight ve and“ will not change anything ”.

The policy of the British government is that he will officially accept Palestine as part of the peace process, but that he will only accept that it is only with other Western countries and at the point of maximum impact.

Cooper and Rayner are among the cabinet ministers of more than half a dozen who oppressed for emergency action. Guardian, this week, Health Secretary Wes Streeting’s Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood and Northern Ireland Secretary Hilary Benn’in last cabinet meetings announced that Palestine was pressured.

According to a cabinet source, Scottish Secretary Ian Murray and Wales Secretary Jo Stevens also raised the problem in the cabinet. Murray and Stevens refused to comment.

It is said that Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy also called for action, and Lammy’s colleagues are said to have pushed the Downing Street to take a stronger stance. A source of government said more and more “everyone V no 10 ..

A source of workers said, “too many people no.

Rayner said last month that the West should avoid repeating past mistakes when it comes to Gaza. At the St Paul Cathedral, more than 8,000 Bosnian Muslims and men were killed by Serbian forces in 1995 by addressing a service to mark the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica Genocide in the Cathedral of Srebrenica: “It took a long time to move in the Western 1990s and we must act earlier.

On Friday, 221 deputies from nine parties asked Lammy to declare the recognition of British Palestine at a UN conference in New York next week.

“If Britain does not have the power to bring a free and independent Palestinian Palestinian, Britain’s recognition will have a significant impact due to our historical connections and our UN Security Council membership, Konu he wrote.

“The recognition of the British Palestine will be particularly strong when the author of the Balfour Declaration and the role of the old compulsory power in Palestine. We have supported a two -state solution since 1980. Such a recognition would give this location substance and reach a historical responsibility we have under this mandal.”

Among the signatures of the letter were the heads of various workers’ election committees such as Foreign Affairs Emily Thornberry, Sarah Champion, International Development and Tanmanjeet Singh.

Other signed were Liberal Democratic leader Ed Davey, Green Party joint leaders, Carla Denyer and SNP’s Westminster leader Stephen Flynn and Conservative MPs Malthouse and Edward Leigh.

The number of real Backbench craftsmen deputies supporting recognition is even higher. Many said they were in favor of the movement, but they did not put their names in the letter. “We have to do more. Israel is committed terrible war crimes,” he said. Approximately 60 Labor Party deputies signed a letter to Lammy at the beginning of this month.

Médecins Sans Frontières, the Medical charity, said that serious malnutrition cases between children under the age of five have doubled in the last two weeks, and that the UN World Food program has reached the “new and amazing level of helplessness levels of the hunger crisis of almost one third of the people in Gaza.

Israel said foreign countries will allow Gaza to continue to decline in aid on Friday.

In an article for The Daily Mirror, Starmer said the ministers working with Jordan officials to help the British and Gaza.

UN Secretary -General António Guterres accused the international community of palestinians of hunger in Gaza, while calling “lack of humanity”. “This is not just a human crisis. It is a moral crisis that forces global conscience,” he said on Friday.
