PM Fiala: No point in recognizing Palestine if it is not clear who represents it

It makes no sense to recognize Palestine as a state if it is not clear who represents it and on what territory, Prime Minister Petr Fiala said on Wednesday in an interview for the website Blesk.cz. Mr Fiala reacted to the announcement that Norway, Ireland and Spain will formally recognise Palestine as a state.

The Czech head of government described the concept of two states, Israeli and Palestinian, as a good goal, but he said it was necessary to create conditions for that.
