The Israeli government has expressed concerns after the recent parliamentary vote in the UK, which saw the recognition of the Palestinian state.
Israel said the vote could undermine possibilities for a peaceful solution, by letting Palestinian leaders think they could evade "tough choices".
"The route to Palestinian statehood runs through the negotiation room. Premature international recognition sends a troubling message to the Palestinian leadership that they can evade the tough choices that both sides have to make, and actually undermines the chances to reach a real peace,” Israel said in a statement.
"Recognition of a Palestinian state should be the result of a successful conclusion of direct peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority."
Earlier this month, Sweden became the first sitting member of the European Union to recognise the Palestinian state.
