Only the US veto prevents global recognition of Palestinian statehood: Analysis

Belgium's governing parties are holding meetings to decide whether to recognise Palestinian statehood.
Prime Minister Bart De Wever's coalition is divided.
Left leaning and centrist groups want immediate recognition of Palestine.
But right-wing factions are pro-Israel and oppose the move.

Yossi Mekelberg is a Senior Consulting Fellow with the Middle East and North Africa Programme at Chatham House.
He says the only thing blocking Palestine from being recognised as an independent state is the United States.
