The UK is talking with France and Saudi Arabia at a UN meeting in June about whether to recognize the Palestinian state.
But British Foreign Secretary David Lammy said on Wednesday that the UK hopes to recognize being part of a two-state solution to the protracted Israel-Palstein crisis rather than a symbolic act.
French President Emmanuel Macron said this month that France could use the UN meeting to recognize the Palestinian state as European and Arab powers made efforts to find sustainable solutions to the crisis triggered by the war between Hamas and Israel.
The New York Conference will be chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, who are trying to build a global alliance to promote the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside Israel.
Addressing a committee in the House of Lords, the Second Chamber of the UK Parliament said the Labor government would rather recognize the Palestinian state as part of a campaign to resolve solutions to the crisis to both countries.
"We will continue to discuss with our partners; President Macron has a lot to say with the Saudis," Rami said.
“For any group of people, life without any state is alive than me, which is unacceptable,” he said. “The only option is two states and we will continue to work with our partners…especially at the meetings held in New York with Saudi Arabians… to make sure we keep both states alive.”
Rami is still a little cautious.
"I recognize that some people think it's symbolic, and some European countries have taken this step recently... Has this changed a lot on the ground? The sad conclusion is not no, so we have always said that understanding is not the end (and) of its own purpose, and that the two countries are the end."
Most UN members have recognized the Palestinian state. Several European countries, including Spain, Ireland and Norway, formally recognized a Palestinian state last year.
However, the similar steps taken by two permanent members of the UN Security Council in the United Nations Security Council will be considered a greater impetus for the Palestinians.
However, diplomats say the challenge is to decide when to use recognition as the leverage ratio of Palestinians and Israel most effectively, and whether it is completed unconditionally or when certain terms are met.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's far-right government has repeatedly ruled out any steps to a two-state solution or made any concessions to the Palestinians.
Donald Trump's re-election is widely regarded as the most pro-Israeli U.S. president, calling for Gaza to be taken over by the United States and become the "Middle Eastern Riviera."
Trump's team helped agents cease fire between Israel and Hamas in January, and militant groups agreed to release hostages in the Gaza Strip in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prisons and pouring aid into the surrounded zone.
But last month the fragile truce collapsed, with Israel imposing a full siege on Gaza and renewing its offense on the Palestinian enclave.
Western and Arab countries have been working to end how to end the crisis since the attack on Israel caused by Hamas on October 7, 2023.
According to Palestinian health officials, Israel's retaliatory offensive in Gaza killed more than 52,000 people and reduced most of its territory to rubble wastelands.
