Poland says it supports two-state solution

“We will support the efforts of the High Representative of the European Union and other countries that believe that some long-term, stable solution is needed,” Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said.

“And we believe that such a stable, long-term solution would be the existence of two states.”

EU’s Borrell says will push for ‘common’ position on two-state solution

The bloc’s foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell urged its 27 members to reach a shared position after Spain, Ireland, and Norway announced they would recognise Palestinian statehood.

“Within the framework of the Common Foreign and Security Policy, I will relentlessly work with all Member States to promote a common EU position based on a 2-state solution,” Borrell wrote on X.

A veiled attempt at getting Spain, Ireland and Norway back in line?

Sweden, Iceland, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Bulgaria already recognize Palestine.

Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Republic of Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia, do not recognize Palestine (and have not announced plans yet)

So it's 12 out of 27 so far in the EU member countries.
