NAM Raps Israel’s Continued Aggression against Palestinians

The Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) deplored Israel’s continued aggression against Palestinians, and asked for the restoration of the rights of the Palestinian nation.

Speaking on behalf of the NAM at the UN Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People on Thursday, the Islamic Republic of Iran’s permanent representative to the United Nations Mohammad Khazayee said that NAM members “call for the restoration of the right of the Palestinians to sovereignty and true independence.

The Committee was meeting in its annual observance of the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People.

NAM urges a just solution to the Palestinian issue and refugees and calls on the international community to take immediate and serious action to condemn Israeli aggressions, Khazayee said.

While supporting the efforts of the UN secretary general and the Committee, the Movement expresses regret over the Israeli occupying regime’s violation of the UN resolutions, the Iranian diplomat added.

He pointed to different resolutions approved by the UN against Israel and said the regime seeks to demolish the identity of the Palestinian lands, particularly in al-Quds, and alter the demographic composition of the region through carrying out settlement activities and expelling Palestinians.

The Iranian envoy described the Tel Aviv regime’s repeated trampling on the rights of Palestinians and the siege of Gaza as clear examples of Israel’s blatant violation of the Palestinian rights and referred to the recent Israeli attack on Gaza that resulted in the killing of 160 Palestinians in contravention of all international rules and regulations.
