Arab Parliament condemns Israeli Knesset's approval of bills to annex West Bank

Arab Parliament President Al Yammahi denounces Israeli Knesset's approval of West Bank annexation laws as violation of international law and UN resolutions.

"This move constitutes a legislative crime and a blatant aggression against international law - Mohammed bin Ahmed Al Yammahi"

Cairo, October 24

Mohammed bin Ahmed Al Yammahi, President of the Arab Parliament, condemned the Israeli Knesset's approval of two draft laws aimed at imposing what is called "Israeli sovereignty" over the West Bank and one of the illegal settlements.

In a statement issued today, Al Yammahi said that this move constitutes a legislative crime and a blatant aggression against international law and UN Security Council resolutions, especially Resolution 2334. He stressed that it represents an attempt to annex Palestinian territories by force and to destroy prospects for peace.

He warned that international silence encourages Israel to persist in its settlement policies and called on the international community and regional parliaments to take urgent action to stop this legislative aggression.

He also renewed his call to suspend the membership of the Israeli Knesset in the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) for its violation of international law and human rights principles.

As an Indian who values peace and sovereignty, I stand with the Arab Parliament's condemnation. Such annexation attempts only escalate tensions in the region.

While I agree that international law should be followed, I wish the Arab Parliament would also condemn the rocket attacks from Gaza with equal vigor. Peace requires both sides to respect boundaries.

India has maintained a balanced position on this issue, and rightly so. We understand the pain of colonization and partition. Hope for a peaceful two-state solution soon! 🙏

The international community's silence is indeed alarming. Just like we stand against cross-border terrorism, we must stand against illegal annexation of territories.

This situation reminds me of how important it is for democracies to uphold international law. India's principled stand on this matter deserves appreciation.
