JAKARTA - Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store stated that his country is ready to recognize an independent Palestinian state and does not rule out the possibility of doing so simultaneously with Spain. "Norwegia is always ready to recognize the Palestinian State and recognize its proper place at the United Nations. The question at this time is when and how it will be done to support efforts to achieve regional peace," the Store said, quoted by ANTARA on Saturday, April 13. Sachez is currently carrying out a diplomatic tour to a number of European countries to garner support for Palestinian state recognition. Today's meeting confirms that we will continue to coordinate with each other, between Madrid and Oslo," the Store added.

"Now is the time for us to make words into action. The recognition of the Palestinian state and the mutual recognition between Israel and Palestine is a key aspect in the application of a two-state solution. The crisis of the situation is demanding drastic action," Sanchez said. Madrid previously also proposed that an international peace conference related to Palestine be held as soon as possible in order to achieve a peaceful, safe, and fair future solution between Israel and Palestine.
