USA examines recognition of Palestine state – Trump advisor criticizes “big mistake”. USA does not currently recognize a Palestinian state, in contrast to 138 of the other 192 member states of the United Nations.
The aim is to determine how Israel's security can be ensured in a two-state solution. The US could lift its veto in the UN Security Council to support the recognition of a PalestinianState and seek further support internationally. Many countries in the Middle East require the establishment of Palestinian state in order to establish diplomatic relations with Israel.
