YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn a historic moment at the United Nations General Assembly, UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper delivered a powerful speech condemning Israeli crimes in Gaza and formally announcing Britain’s recognition of the State of Palestine. Speaking before world leaders, Cooper outlined the UK government’s position on the ongoing conflict, stressing the urgent need for accountability, humanitarian access, and a lasting peace built on justice and international law.
In her speech, the Foreign Secretary directly addressed Israel’s actions in Gaza — including bombardments, the blockade, and civilian casualties — describing them as violations of international humanitarian law. Cooper also underscored the UK’s responsibility as a permanent member of the UN Security Council to take a principled stance on human rights and peace in the Middle East.
The announcement that Britain now recognises Palestine marks a seismic shift in UK foreign policy and could have far-reaching consequences for diplomacy in the region. Recognition is intended to strengthen efforts toward a two-state solution, empowering Palestinians while urging Israel to commit to negotiations grounded in equality, dignity, and self-determination.
