Denmark–Palestine relations refers to the current and historical relations between Denmark and the State of Palestine. Denmark has a representative office in Ramallah. The State of Palestine has a General delegation in Copenhagen. ==Recognition of the State of Palestine== On 19 November 1947, Denmark voted for the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine, supporting the division of Palestine into two states. Denmark does not recognize the State of Palestine, but in December 2010, Palestinian National Authority asked Denmark to recognize the state with the 1967 borders. In January 2011, Denmark with Norway said that they will soon recognize the State of Palestine, and On 9 March, Mahmoud Abbas visited Denmark for the first time, to discuss bilateral relations between Denmark and Palestine. During the visit, Danish Foreign Minister Lene Espersen stated that Denmark was not considering recognizing the State of Palestine. On 29 May, the Social Democrats revealed that if they win the next parliamentary election, they will recognize the State of Palestine. In August, it was still unknown if Denmark would vote no or yes for an Independent Palestinian state in the United Nations. On 15 September 2012, the Social Democrats won the 2011 Danish elections, and expressed support for the Palestinian membership in the UN, but waited for a joint decision in the European Union. On 22 September 2012, hundreds of Danes demonstrated in front of the Folketing. The Palestinian ambassador to Denmark said: "This recognition will enhance Danish-Arab relations and will reflect support of the Danish people for the Palestinian bid to UN". In October 2012, Denmark abstained from voting in the resolution for Palestine in the UNESCO. The Danish Red-Green Alliance (Enhedslisten) is a supporter of an independent Palestinian state. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Denmark–Palestine relations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
