Spain's prime minister says he will push for recognition of Palestinian state

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said on Saturday he will push Spain's Congress of Deputies to recognise a Palestinian state before the end of his mandate in 2027.

"We will do it because of moral conviction, because it's a just cause, but also because it is the only way that two states - Israel and Palestine - can live together and co-exist in peace and security," Sanchez said.
