About this episode
The Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says he is “delivering a lifeline to the people of Gaza".
Australia will join allies the United Kingdom, Canada and France in recognising the state of Palestine. The announcement comes following mounting public pressure for the government to take action on the conflict in the region.
But in answering a question of recognition, new ones are formed. What tangible impact will recognising statehood have - and what more can, and should, Australia do?
Patricia Karvelas and Jacob Greber break it all down on Politics Now.
