U.S. Vice President JD Vance met with the UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy, discussing the recognition of Palestine as a state.
During talks Vance revealed he doesn’t ‘know what it would mean to really recognise a Palestinian state, given the lack of a functional government there’.
He also went on to say that the U.S. were focused on getting more aid into Gaza, acknowledging ‘there’s a lot of common objectives [but] disagreement on how exactly to achieve those common objectives’.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has recently vowed to acknowledge a Palestinian state if Israel does not meet a ceasefire agreement.
