“Preserving a two-state solution means standing with all people who choose peace over violence or terrorism, and honouring their innate desire for the peaceful co-existence of Israeli and Palestinian states as the only roadmap for a secure and prosperous future,” Carney said during a news conference on Wednesday.
He said Canada would formally recognize the state of Palestine at the UN General Assembly.
Carney said Hamas can have no role in the election he is proposing. He also reiterated that Hamas needs to release the remaining Israeli hostages and said a Palestinian state must be demilitarized.
ok so will they:
Disarm Israel from being able to commit its genocide and ethnic cleansing?
Not allow Israel to continue to maintain and expand its settlements, all illegal under international law?
3, Sanction Israel until it dismantles its non-democratic and exclusionary state based on ethnonationalist exclusionary politics?
4, Ensure the right of return for Palestinian refugees and their descendants living many living in refugee camps and are stateless people, and allow them to return into their homes since the 1948 nakba?
I don’t think they will do anything close to any of those points and this is just mere political posturing to protect themselves from allowing a genocide to happen while the ‘international community’ stood and watched and did nothing.
It’s a bit insulting how they think they can dictate the terms of justice with their vague statements.
It’s been decades many states have recognized Palestine as a state. Look where we are at today.
