UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 13 (Xinhua) — The United Nations General Assembly (GA) on Friday adopted a draft resolution endorsing the New York Declaration on the peaceful settlement of the Palestinian question and the realization of a "two-state solution" for two peoples.
The UN General Assembly adopted the resolution with 142 votes in favor. 10 countries voted against the document, and 12 abstained.
The New York Declaration is the outcome of a high-level international conference held at the UN headquarters in late July. It sets out an action-oriented path to a peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the realization of the “two states for two peoples” principle.
The draft resolution was introduced by France and Saudi Arabia, which also co-chaired the international conference.
The Permanent Observer of the State of Palestine thanked the countries that supported the declaration and called on those who “still insist on war and destruction” to listen to the voice of reason.
According to him, the peaceful option is suitable for all who support the solution based on the principle of “two states for two peoples.” It opens the door to integration throughout the Middle East and allows the region to realize its potential in terms of development and cooperation. –0–
