DOHA, September 5, 2025, WAFA – The State of Qatar condemned the statements made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding his desire to displace Palestinians.

In a statement issued today, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the State of Qatar considered these statements an extension of the Israeli occupation’s ongoing policy of violating the rights of the brotherly Palestinian people, reflecting its contempt for international laws and conventions, and exposing its malicious attempts to undermine any prospects for peace, particularly the two-state solution.

Qatar affirmed that the policy of collective punishment practiced by the Israeli occupation against the Palestinian people—including the ongoing brutal genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, its crimes in the West Bank, its violations of religious sanctities, its plans to expand settlements and Judaize Jerusalem, and its restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid to civilians—will not succeed in forcing the Palestinian people to leave their land or in undermining their legitimate rights.

The Ministry stressed the urgent need for the international community to stand firmly against the extremist and provocative policies of the Israeli occupation, in order to prevent the cycle of violence from persisting in the region and spreading to the world.

Qatar also reiterated that the sole guarantee for achieving lasting peace in the Middle East lies in reaching a just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian cause, in accordance with the Arab Peace Initiative and the two-state solution, which guarantees the establishment of an independent and viable State of Palestine on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, and ensures the Palestinian people enjoy their inalienable rights.
