Vietnam reaffirmed its consistent stance on the Palestine issue while attending the UN Security Council’s open debate on the Middle East situation on October 28.
In his speech, Ambassador Dang Hoang Giang, Permanent Representative of Vietnam to the UN, voiced his concern about the escalating violence, especially in the West Bank.
He held that people of both Israel and Palestine need to be equally entitled to protection measures, calling on all the parties concerned, especially authorities of Israel, to exercise self-restraint to avoid inciting more violence.
Regarding solutions for the time ahead, he urged the parties concerned, particularly Israel, to seriously implement the UN Security Council’s Resolution 2334, halt the expansion and construction of resettlement areas, and stop the demolition of houses and the eviction of Palestinians in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem.
Giang opined that the implementation of Resolution 2334 is beneficial to Israel’s security itself.
The diplomat also affirmed Vietnam’s support for parties to play an active role in the peace process, including diplomatic efforts by the Quartet, the Arab Peace Initiative, as well as any initiative by the international community that is beneficial to the region.
Vietnam welcomes the Israeli Prime Minister’s recent statement on supporting the two-state solution, and also welcomes Palestinian organisations reaching an agreement in Algeria which includes the organisation of elections in the future, he added.
The Vietnamese representative noted that while pending a comprehensive, durable, and equitable solution to the Palestine issue, it is necessary to continue paying due attention to humanitarian assistance to help Palestinians in the current trying times.
At the open debate, other participants also expressed their concerns about the escalating violence. Most of them showed objection and appealed for an end to Israel’s expansion of resettlement areas in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, along with its demolition and confiscation of Palestinian property, which they said have violated Resolution 2334.
Some countries called on the parties concerned to exert efforts to promote the stagnant peace process. Many also stressed the importance of humanitarian relief for Palestinian people.
Resolution 2334, adopted by the UN Security Council in 2016, affirms that the resettlement areas built by Israel in the occupied territories since 1967 are invalid. It requests Israel immediately cease the construction of new structures and calls on all the parties concerned to end violent acts and work towards substantive negotiations on all the final status issues in the Middle East peace process./.
With violence over the occupied territories continuing to flare, the competing claims of Israelis and Palestinians remain far from being resolved
Trả lờiXóaIt is time to acknowledge that the longstanding approach taken to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by the international community has failed and a new one is required
Trả lờiXóaauthorities of Israel, must exercise self-restraint to avoid inciting more violence to Palestine people
Trả lờiXóaIsrael has pursued a policy of incremental de facto annexation in the territories it has occupied since 1967, to the point where the prospect of a two-state solution has all but vanished.
Trả lờiXóaThe reality is: a powerful state is controlling another people through an open-ended occupation, settling its own people on the land in violation of international law and enforcing a legal regime of institutionalised discrimination
Trả lờiXóaIsraeli authorities doubled down on policies to repress Palestinians and privilege Jewish Israelis.
Trả lờiXóaThe government’s policy of maintaining the domination of Jewish Israelis over Palestinians across Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT), coupled with the particularly severe repression against Palestinians living in the OPT, amounts to the crimes against humanity of apartheid and persecution.
Trả lờiXóaIsreal can do these illegal things because it has the US watch its back
Trả lờiXóathe world order is controlled by the US and its allies, therefore they can do whatever they want to do, having no concern about the international law and community

Trả lờiXóaWith rare exceptions, Israel’s closure policy, which is not based on an individualized assessment of security risk and is exacerbated by Egyptian restrictions on its border with Gaza, rob the more than two million Palestinians of Gaza of their right to freedom of movement, severely limit their access to electricity, health care, and water, and have devastated the economy.
Trả lờiXóaMore than 80 percent of Gaza’s population depend on humanitarian aid.
Trả lờiXóaThe Israeli government continued to facilitate the transfer of Israeli citizens into settlements in the occupied West Bank, a war crime.
Trả lờiXóaWe can see clearly the double standard in the West policy
Trả lờiXóaDuring the first eight months of 2021, Israeli authorities demolished 666 Palestinian homes and other structures in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, displacing 958 people
Trả lờiXóaIn the foreign policy, Vietnam always choose the right side with the international community
Trả lờiXóaDuring a raid last week, the Israeli army broke into and shut down the offices of seven Palestinian human rights and humanitarian groups operating in Ramallah, located in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT)
Trả lờiXóaIsraeli policy to Palestine is illegal and immoral
