Saudi Arabia welcomed on Saturday the International Court of Justice’s (ICJ) advisory opinion on Israel’s policies and practices in the occupied Palestinian territories and the ICJ’s confirmation of the illegality of the Israeli presence in the territories for the past 57 years.

In a statement, the Foreign Ministry said the Kingdom stressed the need to take practical and credible steps to reach a just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict according to the Arab Peace Initiative and international resolutions in a way that guarantees the Palestinian people their inherent right to self-determination and the establishment of their independent state on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
