Dr Saeb Erakat’s statement on President Abbas’ address to the Security Council
Wednesday, 21 February 2018 15:34

February 20th 2018 

 

President Abbas’ address to the Security Council reaffirmed Palestine's commitment to international law, UN resolutions and the two-state solution on the 1967 border. This is a historical opportunity for the international community to support the achievement of a just and lasting peace and to put an end to 51 years of Israel's occupation of Palestinian land and lives. It is a reminder to the Security Council of the need to uphold to their mandate of supporting peace and security after decades of strengthening Israel’s culture of impunity, just as it is a message to each member state of the United Nations to uphold their responsibilities.

Excellencies Members of the Security Council,

They are part of the 13 million Palestinians, whose country has not yet been recognized as full Member State of the United Nations, despite the numerous resolutions reaffirming their right to self-determination and statehood on their national land.
