The Chamber of Deputies has approved the motion presented by the majority regarding initiatives aimed at the recognition of the State of Palestine. This decision represents a significant step in Italian foreign policy, underscoring the country’s commitment to a negotiated and peaceful solution.
Commitment at the European and international level
The motion commits the government to support, in the appropriate European and international forums, initiatives aimed at the recognition of the State of Palestine. The goal is to promote a solution based on the coexistence of two sovereign and democratic states that can mutually recognize each other and live side by side in peace and security.
Reactions and rejections
Despite the approval of the majority motion, other motions presented by the PD, M5S, and the Green Left Alliance were rejected. The Five Star Movement chose to abstain from voting, calling the entire procedure a “farce.” This division highlights the differing opinions within the Italian political landscape regarding the Palestinian issue.
