International Day of Solidarity with Palestinian people and their rights
The United Nations commemorated the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, which is organized annually to coincide with the day on which the General Assembly took its decision known as the decision of partition of Palestine. The Permanent Representative of the State of Palestine to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, delivered a speech of the President Mahmoud Abbas in which he expressed his appreciation to the peoples of the world who stood with our people and their right to freedom and independence, and Mansour opened an exhibition entitled “Palestine is a land with a people” in response to the arrogance of the occupation and its denial of our presence on our land. He stressed that nearly six million Palestinians are still refugees to this day.
On this day, marches in support of Palestine and its rights took place in many capitals of the world, during which the demonstrators carried banners of support for Palestine and its rights and rejection of the Israeli occupation and all its practices.
During the president's meeting with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, the president asked him to work to stabilize the ceasefire in Gaza. This is something that Israel works to violate daily, with continuous bombing, demolition of homes, and the fall of hundreds of dead and wounded, especially in the Gaza Strip, even though the West Bank is also exposed to continuous attacks, especially from settlers who steal the land and work to displace our people from their homes, cities, and villages, and then plunder what is located on it.
The International Day of Solidarity with our People must be an effective support for Palestine and the protection for Palestinian people, especially children, thousands of whom have been killed since the beginning of these attacks.
France, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, called for the imposition of sanctions on settlers who attack Palestinian citizens while stealing land. The Spanish Prime Minister also called for recognition of the Palestinian state as a necessary step for stability in the region, and it is in Europe’s interest for a moral reason , this is a positive position for Spain and must be understood by the international community in general.
Last but not least, this International Day of Solidarity with Palestinian People is considered positive and confirms what we have been seeking and demanding for years.
