Speaker 1: Ahead of the United Nations UN General Assembly slated for
2
00:00:04,120 –> 00:00:08,800
September twenty twenty five. The President of France, A Manual Macron,
3
00:00:08,839 –> 00:00:11,919
on Thursday issued a statement and said that France will
4
00:00:11,960 –> 00:00:15,560
recognize the State of Palestine at the U ncoming Meeting
5
00:00:15,640 –> 00:00:17,800
of Heads of States as a way to put an
6
00:00:17,960 –> 00:00:20,399
end to the war in Gaza so that the civilian
7
00:00:20,440 –> 00:00:24,920
populations in the Palestinian city can be rescued, also describing
8
00:00:24,960 –> 00:00:27,800
the move as france historical commitment to a just and
9
00:00:27,920 –> 00:00:31,480
lasting peace in the Middle East. This the Prime Minister
10
00:00:31,559 –> 00:00:35,560
of Israel, Benjamin NATANYAHUO within an hour issued a counterpress
11
00:00:35,560 –> 00:00:38,359
statement and said that the State of Israel condemned the
12
00:00:38,399 –> 00:00:42,079
decision of France President to recognize the State of Palestine,
13
00:00:42,359 –> 00:00:46,079
stressing that such move by France rewards terror and risks
14
00:00:46,079 –> 00:00:49,079
creating another Iran proxy that will be a launch pad
15
00:00:49,159 –> 00:00:53,359
to annihilate Israel. According to the President of France, A
16
00:00:53,479 –> 00:00:56,880
Manual Macron, true to its historic commitment to a just
17
00:00:56,960 –> 00:00:59,920
and lasting peace in the Middle East, I have decided
18
00:01:00,039 –> 00:01:03,679
that France will recognize the State of Palestine. I will
19
00:01:03,719 –> 00:01:07,359
make the solemn announcement of the United Nations General Assembly
20
00:01:07,439 –> 00:01:11,120
next September. The urgency is today for the war in
21
00:01:11,200 –> 00:01:14,359
Gaza to end and the civilian population to be rescued.
22
00:01:15,120 –> 00:01:18,400
Peace is possible. There is an immediate cease fire, the
23
00:01:18,480 –> 00:01:21,680
release of all hostages, and massive humanitarian aid to the
24
00:01:21,719 –> 00:01:26,000
people of Gaza. We must also guarantee the demilitarization of
25
00:01:26,040 –> 00:01:30,359
har mass secure and rebuild Gaza. At last, it is
26
00:01:30,439 –> 00:01:34,319
necessary to build the state of Palestine, ensure its viability,
27
00:01:34,319 –> 00:01:38,560
and allow that by accepting its demilitarization and fully acknowledging Israel,
28
00:01:38,879 –> 00:01:42,000
it participates in the safety of everyone in the Middle East.
29
00:01:42,760 –> 00:01:45,799
There is no alternative. The French want peace in the
30
00:01:45,799 –> 00:01:49,400
Middle East. It is up to us, the French, together
31
00:01:49,480 –> 00:01:54,120
with Israelis, the Palestinians, our European and international partners, to
32
00:01:54,200 –> 00:01:57,719
demonstrate that it is possible. In light of the commitments
33
00:01:57,719 –> 00:02:00,640
that the President of the Palestinian Authority made to me,
34
00:02:01,159 –> 00:02:04,920
I wrote to him my determination to move forward, trust,
35
00:02:05,280 –> 00:02:09,719
clarity and commitment. We will win peace, the French President stated.
36
00:02:10,120 –> 00:02:14,280
In a swift reaction, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reacted and
37
00:02:14,360 –> 00:02:18,439
said we strongly condemned President Macron’s decision to recognize a
38
00:02:18,479 –> 00:02:21,280
Palestinian state next to Tel Aviv in the wake of
39
00:02:21,319 –> 00:02:25,360
the October seventh massacre. Such a move rewards terror and
40
00:02:25,479 –> 00:02:30,240
risks creating another Iranian proxy, just as Gaza became. A
41
00:02:30,280 –> 00:02:33,520
Palestinian state in these conditions, would be a launch pad
42
00:02:33,560 –> 00:02:36,960
to annihilate Israel, not to live in peace beside it.
43
00:02:37,680 –> 00:02:40,800
Let’s be clear, the Palestinians do not seek a state
44
00:02:40,800 –> 00:02:45,599
alongside Israel. They seek a state instead of Israel. Meanwhile,
45
00:02:45,840 –> 00:02:48,520
it would be recalled that Daily Savin Used media on
46
00:02:48,639 –> 00:02:52,800
May twenty eighth, twenty twenty five, reported that Indonesian President
47
00:02:53,280 –> 00:02:57,319
Probobo Subianto said he would consider diplomatic ties with Israel
48
00:02:57,360 –> 00:03:01,439
only if it recognized a Palestinian state, speaking during talks
49
00:03:01,479 –> 00:03:06,560
with French President Emmanuel Macron in Jakarta. Indonesia, the world’s
50
00:03:06,599 –> 00:03:10,560
most populous Muslim majority nation, has no formal ties with
51
00:03:10,719 –> 00:03:13,800
Israel and has consistently called for a two state solution
52
00:03:14,000 –> 00:03:18,319
to the decades long conflict. On various occasions, I have
53
00:03:18,439 –> 00:03:21,439
said that Indonesia sees the two state solution and the
54
00:03:21,439 –> 00:03:24,319
freedom of Palestine is the only way to achieve the
55
00:03:24,360 –> 00:03:28,800
true piece, he told a news conference. I also emphasized
56
00:03:28,840 –> 00:03:31,879
that we must acknowledge and guarantee Israel’s writes as a
57
00:03:31,919 –> 00:03:35,680
sovereign country that must be paid attention to unguaranteed safety.
58
00:03:36,400 –> 00:03:41,400
Indonesia has stated that once Israel recognizes Palestine, Indonesia is
59
00:03:41,439 –> 00:03:45,680
ready to recognize Israel and open the diplomatic relationship. In
60
00:03:45,719 –> 00:03:49,520
a joint statement, France and Indonesia called for progress on
61
00:03:50,000 –> 00:03:54,560
mutual recognition between Israel and the Palestinians at an international
62
00:03:54,599 –> 00:03:57,719
conference meant to resurrect the idea of a two state
63
00:03:57,840 –> 00:04:01,639
solution next month June twenty two, twenty five, which Paris
64
00:04:01,680 –> 00:04:06,439
will co chair. The conference should restore a political prospect
65
00:04:06,479 –> 00:04:09,560
of a peaceful settlement of this conflict, which should allow
66
00:04:09,599 –> 00:04:13,199
for an irreversible path toward the realization of a Palestinian
67
00:04:13,240 –> 00:04:18,120
state and mutual recognition between Israel and Palestine. They said
68
00:04:18,920 –> 00:04:22,360
support for the Palestinian cause runs high in Indonesia and
69
00:04:22,399 –> 00:04:27,399
the issue regularly prompts protests. In twenty twenty three, FIFA
70
00:04:27,439 –> 00:04:30,839
stripped Indonesia as the Under twenty World Cup hosts after
71
00:04:30,920 –> 00:04:34,079
some prominent politicians called for Israel to be kicked out
72
00:04:34,120 –> 00:04:37,519
of the tournament and refused to host its team. On
73
00:04:37,600 –> 00:04:40,720
the other hand, Al Jazeera on the eighteenth of July
74
00:04:40,839 –> 00:04:44,639
twenty twenty four reported that Israel’s parliament has passed a
75
00:04:44,720 –> 00:04:49,120
resolution that overwhelmingly rejected the establishment of a Palestinian state.
76
00:04:49,480 –> 00:04:53,759
Israeli media reported the resolution passed in the Kanessid with
77
00:04:53,879 –> 00:04:56,759
sixty eight votes in favour and just nine against it
78
00:04:56,839 –> 00:05:00,680
early on Thursday. It said that a Palestinian state would
79
00:05:00,680 –> 00:05:04,079
pose an existential danger to the State of Israel and
80
00:05:04,120 –> 00:05:09,199
its citizens, perpetuate the Israeli Palestinian conflict, and destabilize the region.
81
00:05:10,000 –> 00:05:14,000
Prime Minister Benjamin Lettin Yahoo’s coalition with far right parties
82
00:05:14,040 –> 00:05:19,040
co sponsored the resolution. Opposition leader Yell Lapid center left
83
00:05:19,079 –> 00:05:22,839
party left the session to avoid supporting the statement, despite
84
00:05:22,879 –> 00:05:26,399
previously saying he favored a two state solution. The Times
85
00:05:26,399 –> 00:05:31,680
of Israel newspaper reported Mustafa Barghuti, the Secretary general of
86
00:05:31,720 –> 00:05:35,639
the Palestinian National Initiative, slammed the passing of the resolution.
87
00:05:36,560 –> 00:05:39,800
No Zionist party from both the government and the opposition
88
00:05:39,920 –> 00:05:44,319
voted against the resolution. He wrote on x this resolution
89
00:05:44,480 –> 00:05:48,040
represents a rejection of peace with Palestinians and an official
90
00:05:48,079 –> 00:05:52,199
declaration of the death of the Oslo Agreement. Barguti posted
91
00:05:52,879 –> 00:05:56,720
the Oslo Accords, which were first signed between Palestinian and
92
00:05:56,800 –> 00:06:00,399
Israeli leaders in nineteen ninety three, called for a Bible
93
00:06:00,439 –> 00:06:03,680
and sovereign Palestinian state living side by side with an
94
00:06:03,759 –> 00:06:08,199
Israeli state, but Israel has continued to adopt policies such
95
00:06:08,240 –> 00:06:12,279
as building illegal settlements on Palestinian lands across the occupied
96
00:06:12,319 –> 00:06:16,879
West Bank and a complete blockade of Gaza. Palestinian authority
97
00:06:16,920 –> 00:06:21,199
official Whusein al Shaik condemned the resolution on social media,
98
00:06:21,639 –> 00:06:25,680
saying the Knesset’s rejection confirms the racism of the occupying
99
00:06:25,720 –> 00:06:30,000
state and its disregard for international law and international legitimacy,
100
00:06:30,279 –> 00:06:33,480
and its insistence on the approach and policy of perpetuating
101
00:06:33,480 –> 00:06:37,879
the occupation forever. Jordan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the
102
00:06:37,959 –> 00:06:44,040
resolution’s approval was a dangerous violation of international law. Israel’s
103
00:06:44,040 –> 00:06:47,720
continued efforts to deny the Palestinians analienable right to their
104
00:06:47,759 –> 00:06:51,319
independent and sovereign state along the lines of June fourth,
105
00:06:51,439 –> 00:06:55,759
nineteen sixty seven, with occupied Jerusalem as its capital, does
106
00:06:55,800 –> 00:06:58,480
not bring security and peace in the region, read a
107
00:06:58,519 –> 00:07:02,959
statement citing the ministry spokesperson Sufi and al Kuda. The
108
00:07:02,959 –> 00:07:06,399
Times of Israel quoted the resolution as saying it will
109
00:07:06,399 –> 00:07:08,800
only be a matter of a short time until Hamas
110
00:07:09,000 –> 00:07:11,839
takes over the Palestinian state and turns it into a
111
00:07:11,920 –> 00:07:16,079
radical Islamic terror base, working in coordination with the Iranian
112
00:07:16,199 –> 00:07:19,759
led axis to eliminate the state of Israel. It added
113
00:07:19,800 –> 00:07:22,279
that a Palestinian state at this time would be a
114
00:07:22,720 –> 00:07:25,639
reward for terrorism and will only encourage Hamas and its
115
00:07:25,639 –> 00:07:28,600
supporters to see this as a victory, referring to the
116
00:07:28,639 –> 00:07:31,959
Hamas led attacks on October seventh in southern Israel that
117
00:07:32,000 –> 00:07:36,680
triggered the current conflict. The decision, however, is not new
118
00:07:36,720 –> 00:07:41,120
for the Kanessid, which has previously rejected Palestinian statehood. A
119
00:07:41,160 –> 00:07:47,800
growing number of countries have recognized Palestinian statehood, including Spain, Slovenia, Norway,
120
00:07:48,120 –> 00:07:52,800
Ireland and others. The resolution comes as Netanyahu is expected
121
00:07:52,839 –> 00:07:56,360
to address the United States Congress next week in Washington,
122
00:07:56,480 –> 00:08:00,519
d C, which has caused divisions among Democratic parties allmakers
123
00:08:00,519 –> 00:08:04,439
who have spoken out against Israel’s conduct in its war
124
00:08:04,480 –> 00:08:09,759
on Gaza. On Wednesday, United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterraz
125
00:08:09,800 –> 00:08:13,000
said that Israel’s policy in the occupied West Bank was
126
00:08:13,040 –> 00:08:17,560
dooming any prospect of a two state solution. Through administrative
127
00:08:17,560 –> 00:08:21,000
and legal steps, Israel is changing the geography of the
128
00:08:21,040 –> 00:08:24,120
West Bank, Guterras said in a statement read by his
129
00:08:24,240 –> 00:08:27,560
Chief of Staff, Courtney Ratre, during a meeting of the
130
00:08:27,720 –> 00:08:32,440
UN Security Council. Recent developments are driving a stake through
131
00:08:32,480 –> 00:08:35,120
the heart of any prospect for a two state solution.
132
00:08:35,559 –> 00:08:40,279
He said, we must change course. All settlement activity must
133
00:08:40,320 –> 00:08:43,919
cease immediately. The UN chief added that the settlements were
134
00:08:43,919 –> 00:08:47,399
a flagrant violation of international law and an obstacle to
135
00:08:47,480 –> 00:08:55,480
peace with Palestinians. Aldi Guindi Guini, in a mortigsal
