Spain has announced that it will also recognize a Palestinian state, after Norway and Ireland previously declared plans to do so.

The government of Spain announced that it would formally recognize a Palestinian state as part of an effort by a number of European countries to pressure Israel and lead to the actual establishment of a Palestinian state.

The Spanish government announced that it would formally recognize the existence of a Palestinian state next week on May 28.
