Call for International Action
The UAE urged the international community, the United Nations, and the UN Security Council to take decisive action in addressing Israel’s illegal practices that contravene international law. Minister Al Marar reaffirmed the UAE’s historic and unwavering support for Palestinian rights, emphasizing the need to establish a serious political framework to resolve the conflict.
He reiterated that regional peace and stability can only be achieved through the two-state solution, which envisions an independent Palestinian state within the framework of international law and legitimate resolutions.
Firm Commitment to Regional Stability
