UN diplomats responded with applause as the Palestinian representative took his seat. Egypt’s representative called the event historic.

For the first time, Palestine sat among the 193 UN member states at the General Assembly in New York. A Palestinian representative attended for the first time on Tuesday, September 10, the opening of the 79th session of the UN General Assembly. This is discussed on the organization’s website.

Until this time, Palestine had only observer status in the General Assembly.

The event was made possible following the adoption of resolution ES-10/23 during the tenth special emergency session earlier this year.

These additional rights and privileges do not imply full Palestinian membership. It received greater opportunities to participate in the work of the UN, but to this day remains without full member status.

The resolution gave Palestine additional rights to participate in Assembly meetings, but it did not give it the right to vote or nominate candidates for key UN bodies such as the Security Council or the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC).

Note that Palestine is an independent and partially recognized state. Specifically, its independence has been recognized by 138 of the 193 UN member states.

Armenia announced the recognition of Palestine as a state.

Norway called the danger from the collapse of the Palestinian Authority
