Canada formally recognised the state of Palestine at the United Nations meeting. Announcing the decision, Prime Minister Mark Carney said that Ottawa offers its full partnership in building the promise of a peaceful future for both the State of Palestine and Israel.

In addition to Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia also announced to formally recognise the State of Palestine, days after the United Nations General Assembly overwhelmingly endorsed a resolution calling for a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine.

Among the three nations, Canada was the first to make the announcement, followed by Australia and the United Kingdom. The move follows through on their previous commitments to grant recognition should Tel Aviv fail to agree to a ceasefire in the ongoing conflict.
