Tunisian President: International legitimacy is crumbling in light of the occupation's crimes against the Palestinian people.

Tunisian President Kais Saied said that international legitimacy is crumbling day by day, in light of the crimes committed by the Israeli occupation against the Palestinian people, especially in the Gaza Strip.

During his meeting with US President Donald Trump's advisor for Arab, Middle East, and African affairs, Massad Boulos, in the Tunisian capital, he stressed that what the occupation is committing is completely unacceptable and constitutes a crime against humanity. He also emphasized that international legitimacy no longer has any meaning given the tragedies endured by Palestinians in Gaza, in addition to the daily bombardment.

Saied showed the US advisor what he described as "shocking" images of infants and children, victims of the famine in Gaza, dying of thirst and hunger, saying, "These are images that express the brutality of the war being waged by the brutal occupation forces to exterminate the Palestinian people, a war whose goal is to make the Palestinians internalize defeat, but free peoples will never accept defeat."

He stressed our people's right to self-determination, calling for an end to the crimes committed in Palestine and for bold decisions to be made that would lead to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.
