Hello and welcome to News Hour from the BBC World Service.
We're coming to you live from London.
I'm James Menendez.
And we're going to begin today with what, at least in diplomatic terms,

147 countries around the world already had,
but for years Israel's principal allies in the West had dragged their feet.
The UK is a permanent member of the UN Security Council.
Canada, a member of the G7 group of leading nations.
And on Monday, France, another UN Security Council member, is expected to follow suit.
