"Two months ago, the French President of the Republic announced that he was considering recognizing a Palestinian state in June, as part of a conference in New York, which was also supposed to include recognition of Israel by regional states, as well as, among other things, the release of the 56 hostages still held in Gaza and the surrender of Hamas. Today, as was unfortunately foreseeable, it must be acknowledged that none of the conditions set out by the President of the Republic himself have been met."
