Although fifteen counties signed a joint declaration on Wednesday calling for recognizing a Palestinian state during the UNGA, Michal stated that “[T]oday there is no state to recognize. Of course, we are doing everything we can within the European Union to resolve the critical humanitarian situation as quickly as possible. But from our point of view, there is currently no state to additionally recognize.”
Israel was one of the earliest countries to recognize the independence of Estonia in 1991. Estonia was one of the 38 countries that boycotted the 2021 World Conference Against Racism in Durban, which was vehemently antisemitic.
President Trump has opposed the idea of recognizing a Palestinian state, saying Tuesday that “you could make the case that you’re rewarding people, that you’re rewarding Hamas if you do that. And I don’t think they should be rewarded. So I’m not in that camp, to be honest. We’ll let you know where we are, but I am not in that camp, because if you do that, you really are rewarding Hamas, and I’m not about to do that.”
