Slovenia urges parliament to recognize Palestinian state

Slovenia’s government endorsed a motion to recognize a Palestinian state and requested parliamentary approval. Prime minister Robert Golob sent the proposal to parliament for consideration. The ruling liberal coalition in Slovenia, led by Golob, has a comfortable majority in the 90-member assembly, making the approval a formality. This decision aligns with recent recognitions by Spain, Norway, and Ireland, despite condemnation from Israel. Slovenia is poised to become the 10th EU member state to officially recognize Palestine.
