UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under growing international and domestic pressure to officially recognize the state of Palestine. Following Franceās bold move and mounting calls from within his own cabinet, Starmer now claims recognition is inevitable, declaring Palestinian statehood an āinalienable right.ā However, he stopped short of providing a timeline, raising questions over the UKās real intent.
In the backdrop of the catastrophic Gaza crisis, where over 38,000 have died and thousands more are displaced, Starmer pledged humanitarian aid, child evacuations, and renewed diplomatic efforts. Yet critics argue that his words fall short without clear policy moves. As Macron gains global support for Franceās recognition, eyes are now fixed on whether Starmer will act ā or delay. The Gaza warās horrors have intensified demands for urgent Western action. Is the UKās recognition promise just lip service?
