Luxembourg, SANA- Luxembourg announced Tuesday its intention to recognize the State of Palestine soon.
Politico reported Luxembourg’s Prime Minister Luc Frieden and Foreign Minister Xavier Bettel as saying in front of a parliamentary committee that the final decision in this regard could be taken in Luxembourg later this month during the UN General Assembly in New York.
Local media reported that this will be done in coordination with several other European countries, including France and Belgium.
This announcement comes amid growing calls by European leaders to halt the Israeli war on Gaza, and the announcement by several countries of their intention to recognize the State of Palestine during the General Assembly.
