The Trump administration is expected to boycott a high -level summit on the Palestinian state, co -pacarraine by France and Saudi Arabia, scheduled for the United Nations in New York on Monday.
The event was initially scheduled for June with French President Emmanuel Macron, but was postponed due to the 12 -day war between Israel and Iran. Representatives of more than 50 countries should speak at the high -level international conference for the peaceful regulation of the Palestine issue, with dozens of additional countries listed as participants.
Reuters reported last month That an American diplomatic cable had urged governments to ignore the “counterproductive” United Nations event, which Washington described as an obstacle to efforts to end the war in Gaza.
“The fact that the French and the Saudis cannot be dissuaded from making this last stumbling block at Peace is a finger in the eye of President Trump,” said Anne Bayefsky, president of Human Rights Voices and director of the Touro Institute on Human Rights and the Holocaust, in Fox News Digital.

“American taxpayers pay a quarter of the costs of this United Nations monstrosity, Warmongrs disguised as Peaceniks. Why do we always set invoices from the United Nations?”
Bayefsky added: “The latter Confab of the United Nations embodies the rejected culture: pushing a Palestinian state in the throat of Israel, without negotiations, and without Palestinian acceptance of the Jewish State. He arrogantly appropriates the right to decide on land property and which, where, where is legal and illegal.
“After October 7, and the reality that the Palestinian authority serves as a Hamas winger on the international scene, it is painfully clear that an armed Palestinian state means more war, no peace,” she said.

In an interview La Tribune on Sunday Sunday, the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jean -Noel Barrot, said that “the prospect of a Palestinian state had never been so threatened – and if necessary”.
“(It is) threatened by the destruction of the Gaza Strip, the expansion of Israeli regulation crawling in the West Bank which undermines the very idea of territorial continuity and the resignation of the international community,” he said.
“(It is) necessary, because what expects to achieve a lasting ceasefire, the release of hostages held by Hamas, and its surrender without describing a political horizon is an illusion,” he added.

Monday’s event comes in the context of Macron’s decision to recognize a Palestinian state. The official declaration would be made to the United Nations General Assembly in September.
President Donald Trump immediately rejected this decision, arguing that Macron’s declaration “does not matter”.
American ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee made fun of the Paris decision in a series of publications on social networks. “As it is intelligent! If Macron can simply” declare “the existence of a state, the United Kingdom can perhaps” declare “a British colony! Huckabee wrote.

In May, Huckabee told Fox News Digital: “If France is really determined to see a Palestinian state, I have a suggestion for them – get a piece of the French Riviera.”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu published a declaration condemning the decision of Paris “to recognize a Palestinian state alongside Tel Aviv following the massacre of October 7”.
The key European nations have not yet supported Macron’s initiative, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni declaring on Saturday that the recognition of a Palestinian state was premature.
“I am very favorable to the state of Palestine, but I am not in favor of recognizing it before establishing it,” said Meloni. “If something that does not exist is recognized on paper, the problem might seem solved when it is not.”
A spokesman for the German government said on Friday: “Israel’s security is of capital importance”, and therefore Berlin “does not intend to recognize a short-term Palestinian state”.

Friday, in a video declaration, the British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said that he “works on a way of peace in the region focused on practical solutions that will make a real difference in the life of those who suffer in this war”.
On the other hand, the member of NATO and the Ally Türkiye welcomed the French move, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan congratulating Macron during a telephone call between the two leaders.
Avi Pazner, a former Israeli ambassador to France and Italy, told Fox News Digital that there was “no rational explanation” for Macron’s decision, because everyone understands that he is “not possible”.
Pazner suggested that Macron could try to gain credibility with the important Muslim and Arab minorities in France, which estimate between 8% and 10% of the country.

“This is the point of view of successive administrations that the unilateral state would prejudge and undermine the necessary conditions for negotiations,” he added. “If France recognizes a Palestinian state, inside the borders? What happens to Jerusalem? What about the Jordan valley? Would the exchanges of land compensate for the territory deemed essential by Israel for security? Declaring the state prematurely prematurely the result of the negotiations, and that was the position adopted by these administrations.”
The French conference and sponsored by the Saudi should take place on Tuesday.
