Belgian FM says open to Palestinian statehood

April 3, 2024 - 19:54

Belgium’s Foreign Minister Hadja Lahbib says the country will consider recognizing Palestinian statehood “when the moment comes”.

Speaking at a NATO summit, Lahbib also expressed concern about the international response to the Gaza war, saying the UN Security Council Resolution calling for an “immediate ceasefire” last month has been shown to be toothless.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the resolution “must be implemented without delay”.
