NEW YorRK: French President Emmanuel Macron on Monday recognised a Palestinian state, leading a UN summit that already spurred other Western governments to take the landmark step that has infuriated Israel.
“The time for peace has come, as we are just moments away from no longer being able to seize it,’ Mr Macron told the summit.
“The time has come to free the 48 hostages held by Hamas. The time has come to stop the war, the bombings of Gaza, the massacres and the displacement,” Mr Macron said.
