Joint Statement from 11 Nations
Eleven Arab and Islamic countries, along with the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, have strongly condemned the Israeli Knesset’s approval of a declaration asserting “Israeli sovereignty” over the occupied West Bank. They view this action as a blatant violation of international law and a breach of relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions, particularly Resolutions 242, 338, and 2334.
Legal Status of Palestinian Territories
The joint statement emphasized that Israel holds no legal sovereignty over the occupied Palestinian territories. The nations asserted that these unilateral actions do not alter the legal status of these areas, especially East Jerusalem. Furthermore, they highlighted that the ongoing Israeli escalation exacerbates tensions in the region, particularly following the continuous aggression against the Gaza Strip, which has resulted in a worsening humanitarian crisis.
Call for International Action
The countries urged the international community to take immediate action to halt these unlawful policies. They advocated for support of a two-state solution based on international legitimacy and the Arab Peace Initiative. This approach aims to establish an independent Palestinian state along the borders of June 4, 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
