France Will Recognize Palestinian Statehood, Macron Says

3 comments

1. Macron is a headline chaser. He embodies French delusions of grandeur. The only thing that makes the French better than the Germans is that they at least pretend they’re not being fingered by American reptiles while the German NPCs will convince how good it actually is.

   The French have been saying they’ll recognise Palestine since 2014, but always walk it back. 1 call from their masters in Washington and they’ll cite that ‘wider diplomatic context is needed for the recognition of a sovereign Palestinian state’ 

2. One angry phone call from Trump later and he will suddenly decide it’s not the right time again, assuming he is being serious in the first place and not just stalling for the pressure to die down.

3. Much too little, much too late, and I’ll believe it when I see it. Still, would be* better than most other western countries. But that isn’t saying much.
