UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under growing international and domestic pressure to officially recognize the state of Palestine. Following France’s bold move and mounting calls from within his own cabinet, Starmer now claims recognition is inevitable, declaring Palestinian statehood an “inalienable right.” However, he stopped short of providing a timeline, raising questions over the UK’s 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 France’s recognition, eyes are now fixed on whether Starmer will act — or delay. The Gaza war’s horrors have intensified demands for urgent Western action. Is the UK’s recognition promise just lip service?

During the NATO summit, Turkish President Erdoğan and French President Macron shared another tense and awkward moment. When Macron stood in front of the Turkish flag, Erdoğan subtly but firmly pulled him to his right side—causing visible discomfort. This follows a previous viral incident in Tirana where Erdoğan grabbed Macron’s finger during a handshake. Netizens are calling it a quiet power move from Erdoğan, adding to Macron’s recent streak of bizarre public moments—including a face-shove from his wife in Vietnam. Their uneasy diplomacy continues to stir global curiosity.
