86 embassies are in Tel Aviv, thus these 86 states have a 'leaning no' position on Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Why are the majority of them not in the table? 2001:8003:64E6:9301:550B:FF1B:174B:4500 (talk) 02:20, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Serbia and Kosovo

Press articles dated September 4, 2020 indicate that Serbia and Kosovo intend to open embassies in Jerusalem, which would require an update to the article.

Confusing

The list is misleading, the intro speaks about sovereignty over E and W Jerusalem. But then the table has been completed by reference to whether this or that entity has recognized either part or all of Jerusalem as capital. It does not follow that recognition of Jerusalem as capital of Israel means that the recognizing entity agrees that Israel is sovereign (over any part or all). I amended the most egregious example, the US, where it was made explicit that the US recognition did not mean recognition of sovereignty. Selfstudier (talk) 18:56, 1 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
