Canada joined the United Kingdom, Australia and Portugal on Sunday in recognizing an independent Palestinian state.
Andorra, Belgium, Luxembourg, Malta and Monaco also announced or confirmed their recognition of a Palestinian state and other countries are expected to join.
“As if to encourage continued conflict, some of this body (are) seeking to unilaterally recognize a Palestinian state," Trump told world leaders gathered at the United Nations on Tuesday.
Prime Minister Mark Carney was asked by reporters Tuesday whether he expected any consequences to the Canada-U.S. relationship after recognizing a Palestinian state.
He criticized the United Nations for failing to end wars, something he said can't be done through dialogue alone.
