AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The UN General Assembly has adopted a resolution calling to organize a high-level conference to implement relevant resolutions and the peaceful settlement of the Palestinian issue.
An overwhelming number of UN members in the General Assembly approved the resolution on Tuesday, despite the opposition from the United S and the Zionist regime.
According to an IRNA reporter, 157 countries voted in favor, seven countries abstained and eight others, including the US, Hungary and Argentina, as well as the Israeli regime, opposed the motions.
By approving the resolution on the peaceful settlement of the Palestinian issue, the UN General Assembly called for achieving a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in the Middle East without delay.
According to the resolution, a high-level international conference on the peaceful settlement of the Palestinian issue will be held in New York in June 2025. It mentions that the aim is to promoting irreversible steps to end the conflict between Israel and Palestine and the creation of an independent Palestinian state.
The General Assembly also overwhelmingly approved a Palestine-drafted resolution on September 16, calling on Israel to end its illegal occupation within 12 months. That was adopted with 124 votes in favor, 43 abstentions, and 14 against, including Israel and the United States.
The last resolution also welcomed an advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in July that declared Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories and settlements illegal and that the regime must withdraw from there.
