Guterres: The situation in Palestine remains a challenge to world peace.
The UN Secretary-General described the continued occupation of Palestine by the Zionist regime as a challenge to world peace and security.
“On this International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian people, we want to fulfill our commitment to the Palestinian people to fulfill their aspirations and build a prosperous future,” UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres tweeted, according to ISNA. Renew peace for the Palestinians and the Israelis.
“The situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territories remains a challenge to world peace and security,” he tweeted.
Every year on November 29, which coincides with the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, the United Nations recognizes the international community’s recognition of the inalienable and legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.
UN resolutions call for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the capital of East Jerusalem.
Israel still occupies about 83 percent of the West Bank.
