Palestine state recognition is diplomatically massive: Former US diplomat

William Lawrence, former US diplomat and professor of international relations at American University, joins Al Jazeera's live from Washington, DC. He says growing international support for Palestinian statehood is putting diplomatic pressure on both Israel and the US, calling it a “massive” moment despite limited immediate humanitarian impact. He highlights Keir Starmer’s unusually specific demands and noted how global consensus—even among Gulf allies—could influence Trump’s stance on Gaza.
