UK recognises Palestinian statehood marking major milestone in push for peace
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"In the face of the growing horror in the Middle East, we are acting to keep alive the possibility of peace and a two-state solution, that means a safe and secure Israel alongside a viable Palestinian state, Sir Keir said on Sunday. Keir Starmer has announced Britain's recognition of a Palestinian state (Keir Starmer/X) He added: To revive the hope of peace and a two-state solution, I state clearly as prime minister of this great country, that the United Kingdom, formally recognises the state of Palestine."
The Independent emphasizes on-the-ground reporting across issues from reproductive rights to climate change and Big Tech, funded by reader donations and kept free of paywalls. The outlet highlights investigations such as Elon Musk’s pro-Trump PAC finances and documentary work focused on American women fighting for reproductive rights. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has formally recognised the state of Palestine after a July policy shift that set conditions, including a ceasefire, for recognition. The move is largely symbolic, expected to anger Israel, diverges from US policy, and is framed as an attempt to revive hope for a two-state solution.
