Rabat - Morocco condemned, on Saturday, the recent decision by the Israeli government to build settlements in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem (Quds), in blatant violation of resolutions of international law, said the foreign affairs ministry in a statement carried by Maghreb Arab Press (MAP).
“The Kingdom of Morocco condemns the decision by the Israeli government to build settlements in the occupied West Bank and Eastern Quds, in blatant violation of resolutions of international law, which undermines efforts meant to reach a fair and global political solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict,” the same source said.
“Morocco deems that the stubbornness of Israel in its colonization policy deepens the process of abuses against the Palestinian people, said the statement,” adding that Morocco draws the attention to the dangerous aspect of such decisions and acts and their results that would hamper peace efforts, given that they show provocation and challenge international law resolutions, which forbid any change in the occupied territories.”
“Faced with this dangerous situation imposed by Israel to alter realities on the field in the occupied Palestine, Morocco is urging the international community to fully shoulder its responsibilities to halt Israeli government’s actions to undermine all peace opportunities in the Middle East by making it stop colonization and respect the right of the Palestinian people to establish the State of Palestine inside the 1967 borders, with Eastern Al Quds as capital.”
