President Abbas welcomes New York's call to recognize Palestine, calling it a "historic step."

President Mahmoud Abbas expressed his high appreciation and welcome, including the New York Public Appeal, to the foreign contributors from: Andorra, Australia, Canada, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, San Marino, Slovenia, and Spain, whose officials are known for their support for the State of Palestine, and because countries that have not recognized it have recognized the State of Palestine.

President Abbas commended the meeting of the needs of the opposing states, which he had longed for through the vision of a two-state solution and peace based on international law and relevant UN resolutions, and his commitment, including his pledge, to implement this.

President Abbas emphasized that these countries' recognition of the State of Palestine, or their declaration of their intention to recognize it, constitutes a squandering of recognition, a step-by-step move toward achieving a just and comprehensive peace, and strengthens international resistance in protest against the resistance. The Palestinian state, with East Jerusalem as its capital, remains an active state.

He called on other countries to join this call, which is required to advance the political movement based on the two-state solution, including ensuring the commitment of all peoples of the region.
