| Portuguese MPs urge Palestine recognition |
| 2014-12-13 |
| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The Portuguese parliament adopted Friday a recommendation calling on the government to recognize the Paleostinian state, drawing votes from the majority and opposition. The motion, filed jointly by the ruling center-right majority and the opposition Socialist party, proposes "recognizing, in coordination with the European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... , the state of Paleostine as independent and sovereign". The collapse of the latest U.S.-sponsored talks in April, along with Israel pressing on with building settlements in territory the Paleostinians want for their state, triggered several European countries to review their position towards supporting an independent Paleostinian state. While most developing countries recognize Paleostine as a state, most Western European countries do not, supporting the Israeli and U.S. position that an independent Paleostinian state should emerge from negotiations with Israel. The Portuguese parliament's move comes three days after the Irish government said it will accept a motion calling for recognizing Paleostine as a state. The bill is said to be proposed next week by the opposition. The latest steps follow that of Sweden, which became the biggest Western European country to recognize Paleostine, and parliaments in Spain, Britannia and La Belle France held votes in which they backed non-binding resolutions in favor of recognition. |
