OTTAWA — In a dramatic twist of diplomacy on July 31, 2025, Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney stunned the world by declaring his intention to formally recognize the State of Palestine at the UN General Assembly this September, joining a growing chorus of G7 countries like France and the UK. The move is designed to revive momentum for a viable two-state solution, contingent on reforms by the Palestinian Authority—namely demilitarization and free, Hamas‑excluded elections in 2026

Carney justified the shift as a necessary response to the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza, warning that prospects for peace were slipping away. He framed recognition as both a moral stand and a strategic push to preserve Israel’s long-term security through a stable Palestinian state

Enter former U.S. President Donald Trump, who wasted no time firing back on Truth Social:

“Wow! Canada has just announced that it is backing statehood for Palestine. That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh’ Canada!!!”

Trump’s warning throws upcoming trade negotiations with Canada into turmoil, with a looming August 1 deadline set to determine whether hefty tariffs will be imposed
