‘We must move towards recognition, and we will do so in the coming months,’ French president says.

French President Emmanuel Macron said on Wednesday that France plans to recognise a Palestinian state within months and could make the move at a United Nations conference in New York in June aimed at resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

    Until now his stance was to say that supporting Palestine is antisemitic.

    I’m sure he’s saying that in good faith. /s

        Yeah, if he’s only motivated by bad reasons, fuck him.

        He can do something that is ultimately better, and still be doing it for reasons wrong enough to be criticised. I don’t understand the point of defending an immoral megalomaniac just because he’s trying at the last second to look like he’s on the good side after fighting for the bad one for a long time.
