Israel is remembering its ambassadors from Norway and Ireland following the European nations’ drive to acknowledge Palestinian statehood, Israel’s foreign minister stated on Wednesday.

“I have actually advised the instant recall of Israel’s ambassadors to Ireland and Norway for assessments due to these nations’ choices to acknowledge a Palestinian state,” minister Israel Katz stated.

“I’m sending out a clear and unquestionable message to Ireland and Norway: Israel will not stay quiet in the face of those weakening its sovereignty and threatening its security,” he published on X.

Soon before Katz’s statement, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre stated his nation will officially acknowledge Palestinian statehood on May 28. Ireland is anticipated to reveal a comparable position quickly.
