Canada to Recognize Palestine at September UN Assembly, Subject to Reform Commitments
- Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that Canada plans to officially acknowledge Palestine as a state during the UN General Assembly in September 2025.
- This decision follows France and the UK planning similar recognitions, with Canada's move depending on Palestinian Authority reforms.
- Carney cited intolerable and rapidly worsening human suffering in Gaza and longstanding commitment to a two-state negotiated peace process.
- Nearly 200 former Canadian diplomats urged Carney to recognize Palestine, and Macron made France the first G7 country to act last week.
- Canada's recognition is largely symbolic but may increase diplomatic pressure for conflict resolution amid over 140 countries’ recognitions worldwide.
