The Sultanate of Oman affirmed its firm position and absolute rejection of any attempts to displace the residents of the Gaza Strip and the occupied Palestinian territories, and the necessity of respecting the legitimate rights of the brotherly Palestinian people to establish their independent state on their land.

The Sultanate of Oman warned in a statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs today that any plans aimed at transferring Palestinians from their lands constitute a flagrant violation of international law and international legitimacy resolutions, and a threat to security and stability in the region.

The Sultanate of Oman called on the international community to assume its responsibilities in protecting the rights of the Palestinian people, and the necessity of reaching a just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian issue, based on international legitimacy resolutions and the Arab Peace Initiative, and ensuring the establishment of an independent Palestinian state on the borders of June 4, 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
