Islamic nations strongly denounce the establishment of a "Somaliland" embassy in occupied Jerusalem, viewing it as an illegal and unacceptable move.
Islamic countries have united in their condemnation of the purported opening of an "embassy" by the self-declared "Somaliland" region within occupied Jerusalem. The foreign ministers of Pakistan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Lebanon, Türkiye, Indonesia, Djibouti, Somalia, Palestine, Oman, Sudan, and Yemen issued a joint statement expressing their strong disapproval of this action.
The move is seen as a violation of international law and the principles agreed upon by the United Nations. The ministers emphasized that Jerusalem remains an integral part of historic Palestine and must be resolved through peaceful negotiations. They stressed that any unilateral actions taken to alter the status quo in the city are unacceptable and could further destabilize the region.
The statement also highlighted the importance of maintaining stability and peace, urging all parties involved to refrain from taking steps that might exacerbate tensions or undermine efforts towards a comprehensive peace agreement. The collective stance reflects the commitment of these nations to uphold international law and support the Palestinian cause.
This united front underscores the global consensus on the issue and sends a clear message that such actions will not be tolerated, reinforcing the need for diplomatic solutions in resolving the long-standing conflict.
