The French president offered support for Israel after the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attacks and frequently speaks out against antisemitism, but he has grown increasingly frustrated about Israel's war in Gaza, especially in recent months.
"Given its historic commitment to a just and sustainable peace in the Middle East, I have decided that France will recognise the state of Palestine,'' Macron posted. ″Peace is possible.''
He also posted a letter he sent to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas about the decision.

Macron said he would do exactly that in June.
I'll belive it when he actually does it.

Why not just do it rather than announcing that you're totally gonna do it?
