France and Palestine
France scores 68/100 toward Palestine (friendliness, support), while Palestine scores 60/100 back.
France toward Palestine
France reaffirmed support for a Palestinian state in a joint statement with Saudi Arabia, condemned Israeli settlement projects and inhumane Gaza remarks alongside G7 partners, and former French ambassadors publicly urged sanctions on Israel over Palestine—reflecting a broadly supportive governmental posture toward Palestinian statehood.
Palestine toward France
Hamas praised former French ambassadors calling for sanctions on Israel, suggesting Palestinian actors view France favorably, but coverage of official Palestinian Authority posture toward France is thin and indirect.
