The Green Party of England and Wales adopted a new policy at its annual conference in Brighton that treats Zionism as a form of racism and calls for establishing a single democratic Palestinian state across the territory, Shehab Wire reported.
The policy represents a significant shift in the party's stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and marks one of the strongest positions taken by a major British political party on the question of Palestinian statehood.
