UK Green Party Defines Zionism as Racism; International Condemnation and Intra-Party Rift

The UK Green Party formally adopted a resolution defining Zionism as racism and supporting a single Palestinian state.

The immediate policy impact remains limited, but the move signals a shift in Western political discourse and internal party dynamics.
