Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary-General Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi expressed his appreciation for the United Nations General Assembly's adoption of a resolution introduced by the Kingdom of Norway, in collaboration with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and several other nations. The resolution calls for an advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on Israel's legal obligations regarding the actions of the United Nations and other states in their support of Palestinians in the occupied Palestinian territories.
According to a press release issued by the GCC General Secretariat on Saturday, Albudaiwi highlighted that the adoption of this resolution clearly underscores the international consensus in favor of supporting the Palestinian people as they confront the challenges they face. He emphasized that the resolution reaffirms global backing for the legitimate right of Palestinians to self-determination and to establish an independent state, ensuring the protection and respect of all their fundamental rights, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
Albudaiwi also emphasized the final statement issued by the 45th GCC Supreme Council in December 2024, which reaffirmed the centrality of the Palestinian cause and called for an end to the Israeli occupation. He reiterated the GCC's unwavering support for Palestinian sovereignty over all occupied territories and urged all nations to complete the procedures for recognizing the State of Palestine.
Additionally, Albudaiwi called for urgent collective action to secure a lasting solution that guarantees the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, in line with the Arab Peace Initiative and relevant international resolutions.
