New York-Sana
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres reaffirmed the UN's commitment to the rights of the Palestinian people, stressing that it will not budge in its commitment to the Palestinian people as it strives to realize its inalienable rights.
In a message marking the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, which coincides tomorrow, Guterres explained that the escalation of settlements, the demolition of Palestinian homes and the aggravation of the suffering in the Gaza Strip must stop. A flagrant violation of international law as set out in Security Council resolution 2334 of 2016.
"These actions portend the elimination of the feasibility of establishing a Palestinian state based on the relevant UN resolutions," he said.
Guterres stressed that a just and lasting solution to the Palestinian issue will be achieved only through negotiations supported by the international community, in which the long-established UN resolutions and long-established principles will be adhered to.
