Foreign Ministry commends UNGA draft resolution

The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates commended the UN General Assembly draft resolution and said the overwhelming vote in favor of this resolution constitutes an international response to all Israeli practices and crimes and affirm the sovereignty of the Palestinian people over the land of the State of Palestine, where they must exercise their right to self-determination.

The Third Committee of the UNGA approved yesterday a draft resolution on the right of the Palestinian people to self‑determination. By the text, the UNGA would reaffirm the right of the Palestinian people to an independent State.

The Ministry urged the member states of the United Nations to assume their responsibilities to protect the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people and to take practical measures to dismantle the Israeli apartheid regime.
