OTTAWA – The NDP is urging the Liberals to recognize Palestinian statehood, warning that a Conservative government would not protect international law in the Middle East.
NDP foreign affairs critic Heather McPherson is accusing the Trudeau government of lacking courage to advance its stated goal of helping a two-state solution, where Israel and a Palestinian country exist peacefully.
McPherson is calling for Canada to sanction far-right ministers in Israel who have suggested it would be justified to starve Palestinians and that some communities should be annihilated.
