RAMALLAH, Saturday, October 28, 2023 (WAFA) – The Presidency welcomed tonight the adoption of the Jordanian-proposed resolution at the UN General Assembly for the protection of civilians and adherence to legal and humanitarian obligations.

The President’s spokesperson, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, thanked the states that voted in favor of the Jordanian-proposed resolution, which he stressed, affirms the majority of the world’s position in support of the Palestinian people and that the Palestinian cause still enjoys a high status throughout the world.

He stressed that having 120 countries backing the resolution means that the world confirms its rejection of the aggression against our people, their displacement from their land, and the creation of a new catastrophe.

He stressed that the world must take note of the voting results and deal with them seriously.

He reiterated that voting in favor of the resolution by such a large majority confirmed to the 14 countries that voted against it that the world rejects the policy of double standards.

The presidential spokesman confirmed that the majority of countries in the world still adopt the position of the Palestinian leadership calling for achieving a permanent and comprehensive peace by ending the Israeli occupation and establishing an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, and this, he stressed, can only be achieved by peaceful means, based on the relevant United Nations resolutions in accordance with international law, and on the basis of the two-state solution.
