This after the new centre-left government in Stockholm made a surprise an**uncement that it plans to recognise the state of Palestine. The Israeli Prime Minister has slammed Sweden, calling the an**uncement counter-productive and saying it will do **thing to help with peace efforts. But there is praise on the Palestinian side. Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian President, said: ?This*case*is*being*discussed*by*many*countries*in *the*world,*especially*European*countries*and*we* hope*they*will follow*Sweden*who*took*this* brave*step.? What is called a ?defacto? recognition of the state of Palestine was approved by the UN General Assembly in 2012. However, most European countries have so far **t given official recognition.
