Israel ire as Argentina and Brazil recognise Palestine Palestinians have praised the South Americans’ decision Israel has reacted angrily to Argentina’s recognition of a Palestinian state within 1967 borders.
Monday’s move by Argentina comes days after a similar step by South American neighbour Brazil.
The Argentinian foreign ministry said recognition was in line with the Palestinians’ right to build an independent state.
More than 100 states around the world recognise Palestine, their mission at the United Nations says.
