The Secretary-General of the Arab League, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, welcomed Armenia’s announcement of its official recognition of the State of Palestine, stressing that it is “a courageous decision that reflects the standing of this friendly country on the right side of history,” according to “Wafa” news agency.
Aboul Gheit said in a statement today, Saturday, that “the expansion of recognition of the Palestinian state reflects a growing conviction among the international community in the impossibility of continuing the occupation and the necessity of implementing the two-bucket solution, and represents an important step towards the embodiment of the Palestinian state on the borders of June 4, 1967.”
He appealed to all countries that have not yet taken this step, “to take the morally sound, legally and politically correct decision to recognize the State of Palestine as soon as possible, as this represents a manifestation of the embodiment of the two-state solution and a real contribution to achieving peace and en
ding the occupation.”
