I earned my degree online at arizona
0:18
state university. I chose to get my
0:20
degree at ASU because I knew that I'd

0:45
Ahead of the United Nations UN General
0:48
Assembly slated for September 2025. The
0:51
president of France, Emanuel Macarron,
0:54
on Thursday issued a statement and said
0:56
that France will recognize the state of
0:58
Palestine at the UN coming meeting of
1:00
heads of states as a way to put an end
1:03
to the war in Gaza so that the civilian
1:05
populations in the Palestinian city can
1:08
be rescued. Also describing the move as
1:10
France historical commitment to a just
1:12
and lasting peace in the Middle East.
1:15
This the prime minister of Israel
1:17
Benjamin Netanyahu within an hour issued
1:19
a counter press statement and said that
1:21
the state of Israel condemned the
1:23
decision of France president to
1:25
recognize the state of Palestine
1:27
stressing that such move by France
1:29
rewards terror and risks creating
1:31
another Iran proxy that will be a launch
1:34
pad to annihilate Israel. According to
1:36
the president of France, Emanuel
1:39
Macarron, true to its historic
1:41
commitment to a just and lasting peace
1:43
in the Middle East, I have decided that
1:45
France will recognize the state of
1:47
Palestine. I will make the solemn
1:49
announcement at the United Nations
1:51
General Assembly next September. The
1:54
urgency is today for the war in Gaza to
1:56
end and the civilian population to be
1:59
rescued. Peace is possible. There is an
2:02
immediate ceasefire, the release of all
2:04
hostages, and massive humanitarian aid
2:06
to the people of Gaza. We must also
2:09
guarantee the demilitarization of Hamas,
2:12
secure and rebuild Gaza. At last, it is
2:15
necessary to build the state of
2:17
Palestine, ensure its viability, and
2:19
allow that by accepting its
2:21
demilitarization and fully acknowledging
2:23
Israel, it participates in the safety of
2:25
everyone in the Middle East. There is no
2:28
alternative. The French want peace in
2:30
the Middle East. It is up to us, the
2:33
French, together with Israelis, the
2:35
Palestinians, our European and
2:37
international partners, to demonstrate
2:39
that it is possible. In light of the
2:42
commitments that the president of the
2:44
Palestinian Authority made to me, I
2:46
wrote to him my determination to move
2:48
forward. Trust, clarity, and commitment.
2:52
We will win peace, the French president
2:54
stated in a swift reaction. Prime
2:57
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reacted and
2:59
said, "We strongly condemn President
3:01
Mran's decision to recognize a
3:03
Palestinian state next to Tel Aviv in
3:06
the wake of the October 7th massacre."
3:08
Such a move rewards terror and risks
3:11
creating another Iranian proxy, just as
3:13
Gaza became. A Palestinian state in
3:16
these conditions would be a launchpad to
3:18
annihilate Israel, not to live in peace
3:21
beside it. Let's be clear, the
3:24
Palestinians do not seek a state
3:26
alongside Israel. They seek a state
3:28
instead of Israel. Meanwhile, it would
3:31
be recalled that Daily Sabbah News media
3:33
on May 28th, 2025 reported that
3:36
Indonesian President Provo Sububanto
3:39
said he would consider diplomatic ties
3:41
with Israel only if it recognized a
3:44
Palestinian state, speaking during talks
3:46
with French President Emanuel Macron in
3:48
Jakarta. Indonesia, the world's most
3:52
populous Muslim majority nation, has no
3:54
formal ties with Israel and has
3:56
consistently called for a two-state
3:58
solution to the decadesl long conflict.
4:01
On various occasions, I have said that
4:04
Indonesia sees the two-state solution
4:06
and the freedom of Palestine is the only
4:08
way to achieve the true peace, he told a
4:11
news conference. I also emphasized that
4:14
we must acknowledge and guarantee
4:15
Israel's rights as a sovereign country
4:17
that must be paid attention to and
4:19
guaranteed safety. Indonesia has stated
4:22
that once Israel recognizes Palestine,
4:25
Indonesia is ready to recognize Israel
4:28
and open the diplomatic relationship. In
4:30
a joint statement, France and Indonesia
4:33
called for progress on mutual
4:35
recognition between Israel and the
4:37
Palestinians at an international
4:39
conference meant to resurrect the idea
4:41
of a two-state solution next month, June
4:44
2025, which Paris will co-chair. The
4:49
conference should restore a political
4:51
prospect of a peaceful settlement of
4:52
this conflict which should allow for an
4:54
irreversible path toward the realization
4:57
of a Palestinian state and mutual
4:59
recognition between Israel and
5:01
Palestine. They said support for the
5:04
Palestinian cause runs high in Indonesia
5:07
and the issue regularly prompts
5:09
protests. In 2023, FIFA stripped
5:13
Indonesia as the under20 World Cup hosts
5:15
after some prominent politicians called
5:17
for Israel to be kicked out of the
5:19
tournament and refused to host its team.
5:22
On the other hand, Al Jazer on the 18th
5:25
of July 2024 reported that Israel's
5:28
parliament has passed a resolution that
5:30
overwhelmingly rejected the
5:32
establishment of a Palestinian state.
5:34
Israeli media reported the resolution
5:37
passed in the Knesset with 68 votes in
5:40
favor and just nine against it early on
5:42
Thursday. It said that a Palestinian
5:45
state would pose an existential danger
5:47
to the state of Israel and its citizens,
5:50
perpetuate the Israeli Palestinian
5:52
conflict, and destabilize the region.
5:55
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's
5:57
coalition with far-right parties
5:59
co-sponsored the resolution. Opposition
6:02
leader Y Lapid Center left party left
6:04
the session to avoid supporting the
6:06
statement despite previously saying he
6:09
favored a two-state solution. The Times
6:11
of Israel newspaper reported Mustapa
6:14
Barguti, the Secretary General of the
6:17
Palestinian National Initiative slammed
6:19
the passing of the resolution. No
6:22
Zionist party from both the government
6:24
and the opposition voted against the
6:26
resolution, he wrote on X. This
6:29
resolution represents a rejection of
6:31
peace with Palestinians and an official
6:33
declaration of the death of the Oslo
6:35
agreement. Bargoti posted the Oslo
6:38
Accords, which were first signed between
6:41
Palestinian and Israeli leaders in 1993,
6:44
called for a viable and sovereign
6:46
Palestinian state living side by side
6:48
with an Israeli state. But Israel has
6:51
continued to adopt policies such as
6:53
building illegal settlements on
6:55
Palestinian lands across the occupied
6:57
West Bank and a complete blockade of
6:59
Gaza. Palestinian Authority official
7:02
Hussein al-Shik condemned the resolution
7:05
on social media saying the Knesset's
7:07
rejection confirms the racism of the
7:10
occupying state and its disregard for
7:12
international law and international
7:14
legitimacy and its insistence on the
7:16
approach and policy of perpetuating the
7:18
occupation forever. Jordan's Ministry of
7:21
Foreign Affairs said the resolution's
7:23
approval was a dangerous violation of
7:26
international law. Israel's continued
7:29
efforts to deny the Palestinians an
7:31
alienable right to their independent and
7:33
sovereign state along the lines of June
7:36
4th, 1967
7:38
with occupy Jerusalem as its capital
7:40
does not bring security and peace in the
7:42
region read a statement citing the
7:44
ministry's spokesperson Sufian al-Quda.
7:47
The Times of Israel quoted the
7:49
resolution as saying, "It will only be a
7:52
matter of a short time until Hamas takes
7:54
over the Palestinian state and turns it
7:56
into a radical Islamic terror base,
7:59
working in coordination with the
8:00
Iranian-led axis to eliminate the state
8:03
of Israel." It added that a Palestinian
8:05
state at this time would be a reward for
8:08
terrorism and will only encourage Hamas
8:10
and its supporters to see this as a
8:12
victory, referring to the Hamasled
8:14
attacks on October 7th in southern
8:16
Israel that triggered the current
8:18
conflict. The decision, however, is not
8:21
new for the Knessid, which has
8:23
previously rejected Palestinian
8:25
statethood. A growing number of
8:27
countries have recognized Palestinian
8:29
statethood, including Spain, Slovenia,
8:32
Norway, Ireland, and others. The
8:35
resolution comes as Netanyahu is
8:37
expected to address the United States
8:39
Congress next week in Washington DC,
8:42
which has caused divisions among
8:44
Democratic Party lawmakers who have
8:46
spoken out against Israel's conduct in
8:49
its war on Gaza. On Wednesday, United
8:52
Nations Secretary General Antonio
8:54
Gutirez said that Israel's policy in the
8:56
occupied West Bank was dooming any
8:58
prospect of a two-state solution through
9:02
administrative and legal steps. Israel
9:04
is changing the geography of the West
9:06
Bank, Gutierrez said in a statement read
9:08
by his chief of staff, Courtney Ratray,
9:11
during a meeting of the UN Security
9:13
Council. Recent developments are driving
9:16
a stake through the heart of any
9:18
prospect for a two-state solution. He
9:20
said, "We must change course. All
9:24
settlement activity must cease
9:25
immediately." The UN chief added that
9:28
the settlements were a flagrant
9:29
violation of international law and an
9:32
obstacle to peace with Palestinians.
