Recent recognitions by the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, France, and several smaller European states in September 2025, coordinated around a UN General Assembly conference co-chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, have brought the total to roughly 150-157 of 193 UN members. These moves, framed as support for a two-state solution and the New York Declaration, followed earlier 2024 actions by Spain, Ireland, Norway, and Slovenia. Remaining holdouts include the United States and several other G7 nations, where policy emphasizes Palestinian Authority reforms, elections, hostage releases, and ceasefires as conditions. Diplomatic efforts tied to ongoing Gaza developments and regional initiatives continue to shape prospects for additional recognitions ahead of 2027.
