NZ has voted in favour of a resolution to broaden the Palestinian role at the United Nations General Assembly. The UN’s general assembly voted overwhelmingly in favour of Palestine being granted full membership of the United Nations. However, New Zealand’s vote does not amount to recognition of Palestinian statehood. Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters reiterated the call for a two-state solution and for an immediate de-escalation of the conflict.
