Geneva, February 23 (Xinhua) — Human rights, human dignity, and international law are being grossly violated in areas affected by the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and the "two-state solution" is being "eroded," UN Secretary-General António Guterres said on Monday.

At the 61st session of the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC), A. Guterres recalled that earlier this month he addressed a meeting of the UN Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People, where the egregious violations of human rights, humiliation of human dignity and violation of international law in areas affected by the Israeli-Palestinian conflict were discussed.

"The current course of events is stark, clear, and determined: the two-state solution is being undone in broad daylight. The international community cannot allow this to happen," the UN Secretary-General emphasized.

A. Guterres called on all countries to comply with the UN Charter, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and international human rights norms, and to promote reform of the global governance system to ensure “real participation and a meaningful voice” for developing countries in the international financial architecture.

The 61st session of the UN Human Rights Council, which opened on Monday in Geneva, Switzerland, will last until March 31. –0–
