Canada will officially recognize the State of Palestine by September 2025, as announced by Prime Minister Mark Carney. This move aligns with international pressure to support Palestinian statehood amid the Gaza crisis. Canada's recognition is tied to conditions including democratic reforms and the demilitarization of a future Palestinian state. The announcement follows similar commitments from France and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, adding diplomatic weight to global pressure on Israel amidst a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.
