RAMALLAH, November 18, 2025 (WAFA) – The State of Palestine tonight welcomed the adoption by the United Nations Security Council of the U.S. draft resolution on Gaza, which affirms the establishment of a permanent and comprehensive ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, the unimpeded delivery of humanitarian assistance, and the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination and the establishment of their independent State.
The State of Palestine stressed the urgent need to immediately implement this resolution on the ground, in a manner that ensures the return of normal life, protects our people in the Gaza Strip, prevents displacement, secures the full withdrawal of the occupying forces, enables reconstruction, halts the undermining of the two-state solution, and prevents annexation.
The State of Palestine expressed its full readiness to cooperate with the U.S. Administration, members of the Security Council, the Arab and Islamic states, the European Union and its member states, the United Nations, and all parties of the international coalition and partners in the New York Declaration, in order to ensure the implementation of this resolution in a way that ends the suffering of our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem, and advances the political path leading to peace, security, and stability between Palestinians and Israelis, based on the two-state solution grounded in international law and international legitimacy.
The State of Palestine renewed its affirmation of its readiness to assume its full responsibilities in the Gaza Strip, within the framework of the unity of land, people, and institutions, considering the Strip an integral part of the State of Palestine.
The State of Palestine also extended its appreciation to all countries that expressed their willingness to work with the State of Palestine and the relevant parties to support Palestinian efforts toward ending the occupation and achieving freedom and independence, based on their commitment to advancing a just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian question—one that brings peace, stability, and security to the region and the world at large.
