Al-Maliki: The annexation step should not take place and should be deterred and buried in the bud

Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Riyad Al-Maliki said that the Israeli annexation of lands from the State of Palestine should not be completed, and should be deterred and buried in the bud.

This came in his speech before the extraordinary open-ended meeting of the Executive Committee at the level of Foreign Ministers of the Member States of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation regarding the threat of the Israeli occupation government to annex parts of the land of the State of Palestine occupied in 1967, today, Wednesday, at the request of the State of Palestine.

He added that we, as an organization, have the capabilities, relationships, and capabilities to prevent this step, which, if taken, would perpetuate the conflict and Israeli colonialism, and would cut off the state of Palestine on the pre-1967 borders, and would be an official Israeli declaration, by canceling all the agreements signed by it and ending the negotiated settlement, and would contribute to The internationally agreed two-state solution has vanished, and the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque will put the first of the two kisses, the second of the two mosques, and the third of the Two Holy Mosques under complete Israeli control, to pass their plan in promoting their false narratives, to destroy it and build their alleged structure, and it will transform the conflict from a political to a religious that will not be hampered, and stability will be destabilized It undermines security and peace in the region and in the world.

He said that this meeting comes at a time when the Israeli government investigated its crimes, which were dogged by a racist ideology hostile to our Arab Palestinian people, and supported by the current American racist administration, which is hostile to international law and its institutions. Where the occupation authorities are trying to consolidate their colonial regime and deflect the inalienable rights of our people, and international law and its rules, and plan to annex parts of the occupied Palestinian territory including Jerusalem, the Jordan Valley and the northern Dead Sea, and the settlements, and continue in cold blood that willful killing of the Palestinian people as it did recently The assassination of Ibn al-Quds, the martyr Iyad al-Hallaq.

He added that these horrific crimes have been going on against the Palestinian people for 72 years, from the age of the Nakba, and increased since 53 years after the brutal Israeli occupation of the Palestinian land, and exposed over the years international peace and security to danger, and destabilized the region and the entire world in the shadow of a flawed international silence. Its consequences are a setback for the international law-based system.

He stressed that the Palestinian issue is the central issue of the Arab and Islamic nations, and in the heart of it is Al-Quds Al-Sharif, and that the legendary steadfastness of our Arab Palestinian people throughout these years, with the support of its Islamic nation and the insistence of the honorable people of the world, has preserved the character of the land and preserved its sanctities, and the form of the anvil on which all attempts are broken The liquidation of the Palestinian cause, and the undermining of the legitimate rights of our people. Betting on a non-valiant Palestinian people is a losing bet.

He continued that our people continue to propose the miracles of its survival and strike its roots deeper, and will accept only dear and sovereign land on its homeland in its independent and sovereign state, the state of Palestine with its capital, Al-Quds Al-Sharif, we will not live in the pockets of the Israeli apartheid, and we will not allow our persecution and the diminution of our rights, we have held For 100 years, we will continue to stand in the last battle towards deterring annexation and independence and ending the Israeli occupation that began in 1967, so we will not retreat from the lines of the fourth of June, nor from the Arab peace initiative that our organization adopted and implemented from A to Z, and to reject biased and unfair solutions. And attempts to circumvent our rights, including through normalization and any form of rushing toward occupation without bringing peace and ending the Israeli occupation of the occupied Arab and Palestinian lands.

He said that whoever prints outside the Arab and Islamic consensus prints with an Israeli racist government that publicly discloses its hostility to us, to the rights of the Palestinian people, and this is a duty of rejection and condemnation.

He stressed that the Israeli occupation authorities´ annexation of any part of the occupied Palestinian territory, including Al-Quds Al-Sharif, and all its legislative and administrative measures and procedures that seek to change the character and status of the occupied Palestinian state land are null and void and have no legal effect and will be faced at all levels.

And that this "It requires us and you to form an international front to vigorously confront Israeli aggressive plans, to take all possible political, legal, diplomatic, and economic measures and steps, including movement in the Security Council, the United Nations General Assembly, the Human Rights Council, and international courts to hold them accountable and accountable, and in any of the organizations And other international bodies, to confront and isolate the Israeli colonial system and boycott it and prohibit its products, impose economic and political sanctions, not to deal with any Israeli government on its annexation agenda, not to recognize the illegal situation it established in Palestine, and not to provide any assistance in its continuation, and to confront any party that supports or Supports these hostile steps in all forms, including demands for the implementation of obligations, UN resolutions, the most recent of which are Security Council Resolution 2334, and the speedy prohibition of businesses operating with colonies mentioned in the Human Rights Council database, in addition to urging countries that have notAfter you recognize the state of Palestine, to do so.

He said that the Palestinian leadership, along with our Muslim nation, faced all attempts to undermine the Palestinian issue, including the Trump-Netanyahu plan called "The Deal of the Times", a plan that encouraged the current Israeli government to publicly brag about its plans to annex parts of the occupied Palestinian territory, and this confirms the necessity of rejecting the plan The American, and any proposal, plan, or initiative from any party that did not meet the Palestinian people´s right to end the occupation and achieve independence, freedom and sovereignty over the occupied Palestinian state with its capital, Jerusalem, and therefore we have duties towards facing these plans, activating the international front and imposing on the international community and its institutions their obligations.

He clarified that the Palestinian leadership expressed, through President Mahmoud Abbas’s initiative, our readiness to engage in a credible and political process and significance, based on the references of international and law law, UN resolutions, the road map plan, and the Arab peace initiative, and with a clear time limit, to ensure an end to the Israeli occupation, Embodying the independence of the state of Palestine with its capital, Al-Quds Al-Sharif, on the pre-1967 borders, and achieving the inalienable rights of our people, including the right to self-determination and the right of return for refugees, within a multilateral international mechanism and the Quartet’s engagement, and holding an international peace conference to protect the two-state solution agreed upon internationally, and in Confronting Israeli unilateral and illegal schemes, including annexation.

He added that Israel is working with its allies in return to pressure financially on the state of Palestine and its people, and prevents funding from UNRWA, especially during the Corona pandemic to deepen our blockade and the blockade of our national economy, in addition to stealing our money and resources, and this calls for support from friends and brothers, from the member states of the organization to support Budget of the State of Palestine. We appeal to you to support UNRWA, and implement the decision to provide the financial safety net for the Palestinian government, to help us withstand and overcome these pressures in the face of the stifling financial crisis it is going through as it has not been able to disburse the salaries of employees until the moment.
