IS FRANCE ABOUT TO RECOGNISE PALESTINE?
July 8, 2024Jean-Luc Melenchon, a prominent leader of the left-wing New People’s Front alliance, has reiterated his commitment to recognize the State of Palestine following his coalition’s victory in the recent French general election.
The early election, prompted by President Emmanuel Macron, concluded with the New Popular’s Front securing the most seats in parliament.
In the second round of voting, the New Popular Front, an alliance comprising four left-wing parties, emerged as the leading force with 178 deputies.
The largest party within the alliance, France Unbowed, is headed by Melenchon.
Celebrating the election victory, Melenchon indicated their readiness to form a government, asserting: “We will have a prime minister from the New Popular Front.”
Melenchon highlighted the potential for significant decisions to be made “by decree” on both national and international fronts, emphasizing that recognizing the State of Palestine would be one of their first actions “as quickly as possible.”

English Script:
Jean-Luc Mélenchon: We have to show, as we did in this election, determination, political will, and discipline in the fight. Instead of going home and merely saying “wow”, you need to mobilise! We will have a Prime Minister from the New Popular Front. Listen, she told you the list of all that can be decided by decree on a national level, and on an international level, because the Constitution gives the President of the Republic the prerogatives, but it also gives them to the Prime Minister, so we will have to both agree, to for example, recognize as soon as possible the State of Palestine.
