On Tuesday, Denmark’s parliament rejected a proposal to recognize a Palestinian state, aligning with the government’s stance that conditions for such recognition were not currently met.
This decision comes despite recent endorsements of Palestinian independence by Spain, Ireland, and Norway.
The bill, proposed by four left-wing parties, faced opposition from the majority of Danish politicians, who argue that a two-state solution is necessary for lasting peace in the Middle East.
Sascha Faxe of The Alternative emphasized that recognition would support the rights of ordinary Palestinians.
Israel has strongly opposed these European moves amid its ongoing conflict with Hamas in Gaza.
