Closed Recognize Palestine as a state

Closed on

As Donald Trump plans to go against international resolutions by recognizing the occupied Golan Heights as Israeli territory, the UK should now counter this decision by recognizing Palestine as a state.

President Trump's decision will only further destabilize the Middle East region, all for the sake of pleasing Israel. Regional allies of Palestine such as Lebanon, Iran and Syria will only be further aggravated by such a brazen move and this could lead to a major conflict between them and Israel. It's time the UK stood up for what's right.
