Damascus, Syria reaffirmed its principled and firm stance in support of the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination and the establishment of their independent state on all their national soil with Jerusalem as its capital according to General Assembly Resolution No.194 for 1948 as an imprescriptible and inalienable right based on international law, United Nations resolutions and all relevant international charters.
Foreign and Expatriates Minister Faisal Mikdad addressed a message to Chairman of the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People at the United Nations (CEIRPP), Ambassador Cheikh Niang, on the occasion of the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People.
“This day has become a solid global platform that keeps the Palestinian cause alive , particularly with the continued dangers that still pose threat to the Palestinian cause,” Mikdad said in the message, adding that no progress has been made until today by the international community to put an end to the Israeli occupation of the Arab lands.
He stressed Syria’s firm stance in rejecting and condemning the Israeli occupation of Arab lands, the war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Israel, the occupying power in the Palestinian territories, and Syria’s rejection of any decisions or measures that do not comply with the UN relevant resolutions.
