The State of Palestine is currently recognized by 8 members of the European Union, namely Bulgaria, Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, Cyprus, and Sweden.

The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policies, Josep Borrell, revealed that he expects some EU countries to officially recognize Palestine.

The Arab countries and the European Union agreed during a meeting in Spain last November that the two-state solution is the only solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

Since 1988, 139 of the 193 countries in the United Nations have recognized Palestinian statehood.
