17 countries, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Egypt, called Hamas on Tuesday, July 29 to deliver to the Palestinian authority at a conference at the UN with the aim of instilling a little life with the solution of two states, Israeli and Palestinian.
The “New York Declaration” prepared by France and Saudi Arabia, co-presidents of the conference, and supported by 15 other countries (including Brazil, Canada, Turkey, Jordan, Qatar, Egypt, United Kingdom), as well as the European Union and the Arab League, demands the end of the war in Gaza, to achieve “the peaceful and sustainable resolution of the Israel-Palian-Palian conflict in the implementation of the implementation of the two.
“Put your arms to the Palestinian authority”
In this context, these countries emphasize that “governance, maintenance of order and security throughout the Palestinian territory should only be incumbent to the Palestinian authority, with the appropriate support.” “Hamas must end his gaza control and return his arms to the Palestinian authority,” he adds.
These statements echo commitments made in June by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in the perspective of this conference and the possibility of convincing more countries to recognize the Palestinian State.
While the UN General Assembly never condemned the unprecedented attack against Hamas on October 7, 2023, which led to Israeli reprisals in Gaza, the text “condemns” this attack.
France Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jean-Noël Barrot, praised during an interview with France 24 a “historical and unprecedented” statement.
“The Arab countries, the countries of the region closely and the Middle East for the first time, condemn Hamas, convicted on October 7, ask for the disarmament of Hamas, require their exclusion of any form of participation in the government of Palestine and clearly express their intention to have in normalized relations with Israel and Israel and the future state of Palestine,” he said.
In the Tribune of the UN General Assembly, where he announced the adoption of this statement, Saudi Foreign Minister, Prince Fayçal Ben Farhane, asked all other Member States to “support this document” in early September.
“The use of hunger as a method of war”
The 17 countries, on the other hand, claim entry without obstacles to humanitarian aid to Gaza, a small territory threatened by famine and reject “the use of hunger as a method of war.”
They also support “the deployment of an international mission of temporary stabilization” in Gaza.
This mission would be intended in particular to protect the civilian population, “support the transfer of security responsibilities” to the Palestinian authority and provide “security guarantees for Palestine and Israel, including surveillance” of a high future.
