RABAT, Nov 27 (NNN-MAP) – Moroccan King, Mohammed VI, yesterday called for “decisive action,” to achieve an immediate, comprehensive, and sustainable ceasefire in Palestinian territories, emphasising the importance of joint efforts to protect human rights, implement UN resolutions, and uphold international law.
In a letter to Cheikh Niang, chairman of the Committee on the Exercise of Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People, marking the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, which falls on Nov 29, the king reaffirmed Morocco’s unwavering support for the Palestinian people’s right, to establish an independent state along pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
The king described the situation in the Palestinian territories, particularly the Gaza Strip, as “tragic,” urging global conscience and immediate action. He expressed deep concern over Israel’s ongoing military actions in Palestinian territories, unilateral measures, and provocations in Jerusalem, which he said, undermine peace efforts and exacerbate tensions.
King Mohammed VI also called on the international community, especially influential nations, to intensify diplomatic efforts to revive negotiations and address the “impasse” in the Middle East peace process.– NNN-MAP
