Pakistan rejects statements by Israel regarding creation of ‘Greater Israel’

Pakistan has strongly condemned and rejected recent statements made by the Israeli Occupying power, alluding to the creation of so-called “Greater Israel” and its designs aimed at the forcible displacement of Palestinians from Gaza.

The Foreign Office, in a statement today, said Pakistan calls on the international community to outrightly reject such provocative notions that constitute a flagrant violation of the international law, principles of the UN Charter, as well as the relevant United Nations resolutions.

It said such statements reflect the occupying power’s intention to entrench its illegal occupation, as well as its complete contempt for all international efforts aimed at achieving lasting peace and stability in the region. The international community must take immediate and tangible measures to prevent the occupying power from further destabilizing the region, and to end its ongoing crimes and atrocities against the Palestinians.

The Foreign Office said Pakistan reaffirms its full support for the Palestinian people’s legitimate rights, including the right to self-determination and the establishment of an independent, viable, and contiguous State of Palestine, based on pre-1967 borders, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.
