UN resolutions, sanctions and lawfare: What Palestinian recognition really means

What does it really mean when countries like France, Britain and Australia “recognize” a Palestinian state, and how could it impact Israel’s sovereignty, diplomacy, and security? In this episode of "Basic Law," hosted by Aylana Meisel, Executive Director at the Israel Law and Liberty Forum, we take a deep dive into one of the most consequential debates shaping Israel’s future. Joining the discussion is International law expert Eugene Kontorovich, who explains why symbolic recognitions may seem hollow but could open the door to dangerous precedents at the United Nations, sanctions campaigns modeled on South Africa and pressure to erode Israel’s control over its own borders.
