Ramallah – Ma’an – The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said that it views with great concern the systematic Israeli incitement campaigns to escalate the war of genocide and displacement against our people, including the explosion of the situation in the occupied West Bank, deepening settlement, and seizing lands to complete the crimes of annexation and imposing Israeli sovereignty over them, with the aim of undermining any opportunity to embody the Palestinian state on the ground with East Jerusalem as its capital.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs referred in a statement issued today, Monday, to the boasting of Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich that “his mission is to thwart a Palestinian state,” and the threats issued by Israeli Foreign Minister Katz to dissolve and dismantle the Authority and impose more punitive measures on it, in the clearest comment on the racist settlement mentality and the culture of “bullying” and political terrorism, under the pretext of the Palestinian quest to issue a
resolution from the United Nations General Assembly to adopt the advisory opinion issued by the International Court of Justice, and to demand practical measures to implement it. The racist threats against the Authority are accompanied by unilateral and illegal punitive measures against our people, targeting all Palestinians in order to liquidate the Palestinian cause.
She pointed out that these threats are an expression of the Israeli government’s crises, political bankruptcy, and international isolation, and an attempt to export them to the Palestinian side, and an attempt to exploit the circumstances of the war of extermination and displacement to implement the largest possible number of Israeli expansionist settlement plans at the expense of the land of the State of Palestine and its people.
The Ministry reiterated that the Palestinian National Authority is the initial embodiment of the Palestinian state and derives its legitimacy from the will of the Palestinian people to persevere, stand firm and adher
e to freedom and independence. It is a direct product of international legitimacy and is not a hostage to the occupation and its gangs.
The Ministry said that it is following this issue with great interest with various countries and components of the international community to explain and expose the dimensions of the current Israeli plans, including the fierce occupation war on the Palestinian National Authority and its leadership, as it is the Palestinian legitimacy and the title of our people’s struggle, steadfastness and just and legitimate national rights, and to demand that the international community deal with the utmost seriousness with these daily threats and large-scale attacks to which our people and their homeland are exposed, and to take the necessary practical measures that are rejected by international law to protect our people and implement the advisory opinion issued by the International Court of Justice.
