Asuncion (Paraguay), Jan 28 (DPA) Paraguay recognised Palestine as a 'free and independent' state Friday, within the Palestinian territorial borders prior to 1967.
Paraguay thus joined a host of other South American countries which recogbnise Palestine as an independent state dating back from 1967.
Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru and Bolivia have moved in recent weeks to recognise Palestine, in decisions that the US and Israel slammed as counterproductive and damaging.
Venezuela also recognises Palestine as a sovereign state, and Uruguay has announced plans to do so next year.
