Namibia protests Zionist membership in the African Union.
Following the protests of South Africa and Algeria over the Zionist regime’s membership in the African Union, Namibia also protested the decision to accept the regime as an observer member of the African Union.
Following the recent announcement by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs that the regime would join the African Union as an observer member, African countries have been protesting against this decision one after another.
The Namibian Ministry of International Relations and Cooperation said in a statement that the government was “very concerned and disappointed” with the decision to award Tel Aviv as a watchdog member of the African Union, the Anatolia News Agency reported on Friday morning.
The statement went on to say that calling Tel Aviv an “observer” was accompanied by an escalation of the regime’s pressure on the Palestinians and human rights abuses in Palestine.
According to the report, Namibia also stressed that the decision to grant membership to Tel Aviv in the African Union contradicts the goals and principles of the African Union.
In another part of the statement, it declared its firm support and solidarity with the Palestinian people against the Israeli occupiers.
The protest comes as South Africa recently condemned the Zionist regime’s accession to the African Union as an observer member, calling it unjustifiable.
The Algerian Foreign Ministry also stressed that the decision to accept the Zionist regime as an observer member of the African Union could not legitimize its actions and behavior.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry announced in a statement on July 21 that Adamsu Alali, Tel Aviv’s ambassador to Addis Ababa, had submitted his credentials as an observer member of the African Union.
In a statement, Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid called Tel Aviv’s accession to the African Union the “Eid” day of the regime.
Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the political bureau of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), sent a letter of protest to the head of the African Union Commission in response to the decision.
