(ANSA) - BELGRADE, MAY 9 - Slovenian Foreign Minister Tanja Fajon announced today that the government has begun procedures to recognise Palestine, according to the Slovenian news agency STA. Fajon spoke of a first, irreversible step, announcing that the recognition motion would be submitted to the National Assembly within a month, or on June 13. Slovenia is thus sending a clear message about the urgent need for Middle Eastern peace and a two-state solution, according to Fajon's post on X. Spain and Ireland are expected to recognise Palestine as an independent country on May 21, but the exact date has yet to be confirmed, according to STA. (ANSA).
