The Czech Republic explicitly does not recognize the State of Palestine

Latest comment: 7 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The Czech Republic explicitly does not recognize the Palestinian state: In spite of being included in several list of states that recognise Palestine, on grounds that the former Czechoslovakia recognised it, the independent Czech Republic has never recognised the Palestinian state. The wikipedia page currently says, based on a Palestinian source, that the Czech Republic recognized it in 1988 - the Czech Republic didn't even exist in 1988; it only came to exist in 1993.

In 2015, Czech Foreign Ministry explicitedly said "Unilateral recognition of Palestine as a state is noneffective": http://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/Unilateral-recognition-of-Palestinian-state-is-non-effective-says-Czech-Foreign-Minister-380830

Asked about whether the Czech Republic would now recognize a Palestinian state, as Sweden did recently", he said that "despite reports in the media to the contrary", unilateral steps were unhelpful: http://www.worldjewishcongress.org/en/news/czech-republic-has-no-intention-to-change-policies-toward-israel-says-czech-fm

"The Czech Republic does not intend to unilaterally recognize a Palestinian state, as Sweden did last week, Zaorálek clarified.": http://www.timesofisrael.com/czech-fm-settlements-suggest-israel-uninterested-in-peace/

In fact, the Czech Republic was one of few countries in the world having voted AGAINST recognising Palestinian statehood at UNESCO in 2011 [237], and was the only European country to vote against the 2012 UN resolution on the recognition of a Palestinian state: http://www.un.org/press/en/2012/ga11317.doc.htm

http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-czech-palestinians-idUKBRE8AT0P020121130

etc. I have added three times already all this information to the Wiki article, but it keeps getting reverted and replaced by the Palestinian source that says the Czech Republic recognizes its statehood 5 years before the Czech Republic was even created. Malanjines (talk) 16:02, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

OK, so now you acknowledge that it is sourced, but contend that the source is partisan. But then you counter this with Israeli sources, which kind of defeats your point.
The Czech Republic is a legal successor state to Czechoslovakia, and thus inherited all of its rights and obligations. This was made clear by the Czech government. See for example this declaration:

In conformity with the valid principles of international law and to the extent defined by it, the Czech Republic, as a successor State to the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic, considers itself bound, as of 1 January 1993, i.e., the date of the dissolution of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic, by multilateral international treaties to which the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic was a party on that date.

Additionally, the Czech government approved a Constitutional law which explicitly stated that it continued to recognize states which had been recognized by Czechoslovakia:

Česká republika uznává všechny státy a vlády, které ke dni svého zániku uznávala Česká a Slovenská

The Czech Republic continued to maintain diplomatic relations with Palestine, see [1].
None of the sources you list support your claim that the "Czech Republic explicitly does not recognize the Palestinian state". That something is "noneffective" or "unhelpful" obviously does not mean it didn't happen. Nor does a vote against a UN resolution giving it observer status, which contained various other provisions. Consider Sweden, which voted in favour but didn't recognize Palestine until two years later. Arguing that a a NO vote implies non-recognition is WP:OR.
The list gives the date of original recognition (ie Russia didn't exist in 1988 either). I think it's debatable whether this is appropriate, or the date of succession is appropriate, I'm indifferent on that point. However, it doesn't change the fact that the Czech Republic succeeded to Czechoslovakia's recognition. TDL (talk) 03:31, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

"Canada enjoys positive relations with the Palestinian Authority (PA), the governmental entity in the West Bank and Gaza. Canada recognizes the Palestinian right to self-determination and supports the creation of a sovereign, independent, viable, democratic and territorially contiguous Palestinian state, as part of a comprehensive, just and lasting peace settlement." From the provided link
This suggests that rather than recognizing Palestine, Canada supports "the creation of a Palestinian state" and the right to self-determination.

I agree that the map is biased. The same map is used for the International recognition of Israel. Compare the two and notice. On the one regarding Palestine, the south Pole is coloured in grey (which indicate countries that have never recognised palestine) but on the same map regarding israel, the same south pole is left in a nutral white colour.

Yeah - I really didn't do much verification of this past checking the source provided, but on further inspection it seems the source provided was wrong. I will restore the addition of Saint Kitts and Nevis to the graphic (I assume it just got missed because it isn't very large on the map), but Mexico has not published any kind of statement recognizing Palestine. Feel free to ping me if the graphic needs to be updated again. Tollens (talk) 17:17, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
What about this source in Spanish here: https://www.eluniversal.com.mx/mundo/palestina-reclasifica-mision-diplomatica-en-mexico-al-nivel-de-embajada/. The Special Delegation of Palestine in Mexico has now been upgraded to an embassy already. NYCT192 (talk) 18:16, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
That still only appears to be a statement from Palestine - a statement from the government of Mexico would be needed, which they don't seem to have made. Tollens (talk) 18:30, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
But what about the Special Delegation of Palestine in Mexico becoming an embassy of Palestine. NYCT192 (talk) 22:09, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
That's only been published by Palestine - they can call themselves whatever they want. From a machine translation of their statement: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates announces the decision of the State of Palestine [emphasis mine] to reclassify its diplomatic mission in the United Mexican States, from "Special Delegation" to the level of "Embassy of the State of Palestine", as of Thursday, June 1, 2023. This does not appear to be a decision made by the Mexican government, but rather Palestine renaming its own embassy. Tollens (talk) 03:52, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
Okay got it. Thanks. NYCT192 (talk) 06:56, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
If we're waiting to see if Mexico makes an official statement (which I think is a good idea), then we need to revert it back to saying 138 of the 193 UN member states. Currently there are two instances in the main body of the article that say "139" (despite the map and table having 138). Everyone ok with reverting back to 138?

Fixed at Template:Numrec/Palestine. I didn't wait for more input on this one as the article should be self-consistent; if anyone wants Mexico back on the list we can discuss further.

This is Mexican Senate expressing (in 2021) their "wishes that these be conducted at the level of reciprocal embassies, with all rights and duties determined by international law." It also says "despite the fact that our country maintains diplomatic relations with Palestine , it has not recognized a Palestinian State and only a few agreements have been signed" so we would seem to be still waiting for an official Mexico recognition at this point.

Yep we can close this discussion now. Anyway Greece and Mexico have not recognized Palestine at all. That’s just about it in my opinion. NYCT192 (talk) 18:22, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
They have not recognized SoP. Similar to other countries such as the UK, where there is parliamentary recognition unimplemented by government so far. Selfstudier (talk) 18:31, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

European Union?

Looks like Palestine–European Union relations are not addressed, while "The European Union (EU) has a long-standing commitment to the vision of an independent and sovereign state of Palestine, living side by side with Israel in peace and security. The EU and the Palestinian Authority (PA) enjoy a strong partnership guided by the principles of mutual accountability, transparency and deep democracy that are essential to the establishment of a future democratic Palestinian state" https://www.eeas.europa.eu/palestine/european-union-and-palestine_en?s=206&etrans=fr&page_lang=en 77.193.104.36 (talk) 21:40, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

It's about a vision and partnership, not about diplomatic relations. Unless I have missed something? — kashmīrī TALK 22:14, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
I do not know for diplomatic relations/diplomacy; did you mean diplomatic recognition? In such a case, diplomatic recognition map does not match International recognition of the State of Palestine map. It is also different from the Foreign relations of the State of Palestine.
Politics looks quite complex headache in either sides. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.193.104.36 (talk) 20:11, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

Mexico does recognize the State of Palestine

Latest comment: 6 months ago13 comments3 people in discussion

Ok, so all the reports saying Mexico had recognized the State of Palestine are correct – they have been starting to use "State of Palestine" in their official documents, such as this official document from their Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 16 May 2023: https://www.gob.mx/cms/uploads/attachment/file/825054/Anexo_3_Transportaci_n_Internacional.pdf

And https://www.gob.mx/cms/uploads/attachment/file/825056/Anexo_5__PAISES_ELEGIBLES.pdf - previously, they called it "Palestinian National Authority"

The same here, in this official document from 1st September 2023 the Mexican Foreign Ministry says it has signed an international agreement with the State of Palestine: https://www.gob.mx/cms/uploads/attachment/file/852203/5_InformeLabores_Secretari_a_de_Relaciones_Exteriores_Web.pdf

There will never be an official declaration saying that Mexico did recognize it though - why? Because, according to Wikipedia itself, it is Mexico's "core foreign policy guideline since 1930" never to announce official diplomatic recognitions, as per their Estrada Doctrine. But I guess that its Ministry of Foreign Affairs signing a treaty between Mexico "and the State of Palestine", and the Mexican government having started to refer to it as "the State of Palestine" in its official documents in the past months, is more than enough confirmation that the reports that came out also earlier this year about the recognition were correct, right? Dan Palraz (talk) 16:10, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

The "international agreement" (is it a treaty?) would imply recognition, assuming there will not be an official declaration, I still think we need to see independent third party confirmation of the case rather than primary research/sourcing. Selfstudier (talk) 17:59, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
Sure thing. Here is one third party report: https://jacobin.com/2023/07/mexico-amlo-israel-palestine-embassy-diplomacy Dan Palraz (talk) 18:20, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
And here is the Mexican delegation three days ago at the United Nations referring in an official intervention as the State of Palestine: "We demand the Occupying Power to cease its occupation and all other acts affecting the territorial integrity of the State of Palestine, in accordance with the relevant Security Council resolutions" (https://www.gob.mx/sre/documentos/mexico-s-intervention-at-the-10th-special-emergency-session-of-the-general-assembly-on-the-situation-in-the-middle-east?idiom=en)
And here is the bilateral treaty signed between "the United Mexican States and the State of Palestine": https://transparencia.sre.gob.mx/transparencia-categorias/category/392-fracc-vi-i-los-acuerdos-interinstitucionales?download=149830:2022-feb-16-sreamexcid-palestina-mde-cooperacin-internacional&start=140 Dan Palraz (talk) 18:27, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
That's a memorandum of understanding, not a treaty. At the UN, all members refer to the SoP but that has no significance for non recognizing countries outside of the UN. Let me study the Jacobin source and see if there is enough there. Selfstudier (talk) 18:39, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
This RS says as of 14 June "the fact that 138 UN member states (with Mexico reported as likely to be the 139th) now explicitly recognise its statehood" Selfstudier (talk) 18:54, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
This says "It is worth noting that Mexico does not recognise states in the form of a public statement; its practice is to establish state-to-state relations with reciprocal embassies." Selfstudier (talk) 19:08, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

No, no country that doesn't recognize the State of Palestine ever refers to it that way; you will not find a single speech at the UN by the USA, Israel, France, Germany, the UK etc in which they say "State of Palestine". And no, Kashmiri, recognition declarations and memorandums of understanding like the one above do not need to be ratified. Also, you will never find a memorandum of understanding signed between the USA, Israel, France, Germany, the UK etc and "the State of Palestine", as they don't recognize it and merely signing a memorandum of understanding with those words in it would imply recognition. And yes, Selfstudier, Mexico has an office in Ramallah - or, as they call it, in Palestine (again, you'll never see the USA, France, Germany, the UK talk about "Palestine", they always write "the Palestinian territories" - the fact Mexico says "Palestine" also confirms their recognition): https://twitter.com/ofimexpal?lang=en I don't really see what else we need, as Mexico doesn't do public announcements of recognition, but, as I showed, has changed its mentions in its public documents, in the past year, from "Palestinian National Authority" to "State of Palestine". And, as for what third sources say, we have sources saying they do recognize it - as well as the Palestinians saying Mexico recognizes them, without being refuted by Mexico. So I don't know what else we might expect to find. Dan Palraz (talk) 21:24, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
Me either. You are able to edit this yourself if you are confident about it but you asked for opinions in talk and I gave you mine along with a couple other sources. Selfstudier (talk) 22:47, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
I was just banned for an indefinite amount of time from editing because of one 1RR violation even if I self-reverted right after making it. So I guess it will have to be you to add Mexico - someone had done it before, even adding it to the map, so all you need is to recover that previous edit, if you want to. I can't be of help here anymore. Best of luck to you, and to you all. Dan Palraz (talk) 22:53, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

Does Malta already recognize Palestine?

Latest comment: 3 days ago4 comments3 people in discussion

Several news articles and the Maltese government say that Malta is going to recognize the State of Palestine soon; however, other sources say it happened decades ago when the State was formally established. In particular, the 2024 letter used on this article and apparently the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs mantain that Malta recognized Palestine on 16 November 1988, but I can't find a direct source.
