Conference to recognise Palestinian state to weaken scope of its ambition, diplomats say | Palestinian territories | The Guardian (2025-06-07)
>> UK, France and other western states will not recognise Palestine at New York meeting, instead focusing on agreeing steps towards it
>> A planned conference in New York this month that supporters of Palestine had hoped would push western governments to recognise a Palestinian state has weakened its ambition and will instead hope to agree on steps towards recognition, diplomats have said.
>> The change to the aims of the conference, due to be held between 17 and 20 June, marks a retreat from an earlier vision that it would mark a joint declaration of recognition of Palestine as a state by a large group of countries, including permanent UN security council members France and the UK.

Steps towards it sounds awfully familiar to the past 80 years.
