Spain officially recognized Palestine as a state during a Council of Ministers meeting, aiming to secure fairness for Palestinians, enhance security for Israel, and promote peace in the region. The recognition includes a "viable" Palestinian state connected by a corridor, unified by the Palestinian Authority, and East Jerusalem as its capital. Spain's decision, which follows Ireland and Norway's planned recognition, comes as a growing international trend to support Palestinian statehood.
