Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez suggested that the fact the four leaders represented all sides of the political spectrum - with Spain and Malta governed by centre-left parties, Slovenia by a Liberal party, and Ireland by a centre-right party - showed there was broad political consensus that the recognition of Palestine is necessary for any future peace process.

Although the European Union supports the so-called two-state solution - which would deliver statehood for Palestinians - and is the single biggest donor of aid to Palestinians, it has not yet unanimously backed the recognition of a Palestinian state.

    Almost all of them support Hamas though, even in the West Bank.

    In fact, it’s extremely likely that Hamas (or some off-shoot) will soon end up as the government there too.

    Why would Ukraine be terrorists? It’s not like they entered Russia taken civilians hostage and committed mass rape and murder in a day of rampage against civilians. That is what Hamas did, that is what the Palestinians mostly support.

      Why would people living in a prison support the only people promising freedom?
