Influential Jewish lobbies operating in the US are pressuring French President Emmanuel Macron not to recognize the Palestinian state.
The editorial office reports that this information was disseminated by the Israel-based “i24” channel. According to the information, lobby groups have activated diplomatic channels in this direction through US President Donald Trump and are trying to directly influence the French leadership.
News circulating in international media that France may officially recognize the Palestinian state in the near future has caused concern among the lobbies. According to claims, intensive lobbying activities are being carried out along the Washington–Paris axis to prevent the process.
It should be noted that several European countries, including Spain, Norway, and Ireland, have currently declared their recognition of the Palestinian state, and this issue is one of the main topics on the agenda of diplomatic discussions on the continent.
