"Mr President, on 23 September, the President of the Palestinian Authority will ask the UN General Assembly to recognise the Palestinian state. The Palestinians are making this move following laborious efforts to discharge their obligations towards the Quartet, because they believe that recognition of their State by that international organisation will kick start negotiations with Israel, which have been completely deadlocked for some time now. As we all know, the Quartet, which includes the European Union, undertook to find a two-state solution by September 2011. One state, Israel, exists. The other was built by the Palestinians, by completing Prime Minister Fayat’s programme. Now this state is waiting for the international recognition it deserves, in the hope that, as a recognised state in the international community, it will sit at the negotiating table on equal terms with Israel in order to find a sustainable solution to the problem between them. In addition to talks to resolve the political question, upgrading the status of the Palestinians would help to resolve other individual – but important – issues, such as security, the utilisation of water resources, the refugee question and the status of Jerusalem. The stated position of the European Union is that it supports the Palestinians’ request, but that it needs to be put forward, as they say, at the right time. We say that, for the reasons I have given, now is the right time."@en1
