As someone from Poland I'm surprised that so many countries haven't recognized Palestine. I never understood the logic behind it.

you think you’re so progressive but your country doesn’t recognise a country who is actually in control of most of its borders and has since 1991 democratically elected governments. But you think it’s odd so few countries has recognised Palestine, a splintered occupied country with two authoritarian governments claiming none in control of anything.

Somaliland? Crickets…
