President El-Sisi touched on the Palestinian cause, saying the Palestinian people yearn for the basic human rights of living in an independent state.
“Achieving this right has exhausted generations and exhausted many decisions to an extent that has become burdening the human conscience and there is no way to get rid of this burden and open a new horizon for peace, cooperation and co-existence except through establishing an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, so peace and security may prevail in the region,” he said.
He also said that the international community must re-commit to achieving the long-awaited peace and must stand against the decisions and procedures that take land from the Palestinians that comprises the two-state solution and the basis of resettlement based on UN resolutions.
