Russia’s warning about the contradiction of the American resolution with the establishment of an independent Palestinian state – Mehr news agency RCO News Agency

According to Mehr news agency, citing Tass, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced that the resolution proposed by the United States on the Gaza Strip, which was recently approved by the UN Security Council, is against international decisions regarding the establishment of the Palestinian state.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia stated: “Resolution 2803 not only does not have the authority of the Security Council to maintain peace and security, but also contradicts the real principles of peacemaking and international legal decisions regarding the establishment of an independent and unified Palestinian state within the borders of 1967.”

The ministry also criticized the US’s pressure to approve this resolution without examining the fundamental reforms of other countries and added: Even the publication of Russia’s draft to resolve disputes in the Security Council did not help to improve the situation.

The US resolution foresees the creation of a “peace commission” that will be in charge of the administration of Gaza and will be led by the US president. According to this plan, international forces will be deployed in the region to disarm the Palestinian resistance. This resolution deprives the Palestinian people of their will to govern their own country and does not oblige Tel Aviv to refrain from annexing Palestinian territories.

Russia and China abstained from the US resolution on Gaza and did not see this resolution as a basis for peace in the region.
