In a statement, the Foreign Ministry outlined its position regarding the progress made in the negotiations between the Hamas Political-Military Resistance Organization, the Palestinian authorities, and the government of Israel, as a result of international pressure and the people’s drives across the world .

It pointed out that the international popular mobilization, along with global political and diplomatic pressure, including that of Arab and Muslim states and peoples, “have been decisive in opening this process.”

The statement noted that what happened reaffirmed that “the Palestinian cause belongs to all humanity.”

It remembered that the agreement reached came after the almost total destruction of the Gaza Strip, where more than 65,000 people, mostly children, women, and defenseless civilians, were killed by the criminal bombings of the Zionist occupying forces, in flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.

The Bolivarian Republic called for continued mobilizations “until the mandates of international law, particularly the resolutions of the United Nations Security Council, are fully complied with.”

It affirmed that these demand the withdrawal of the occupying forces from the territories invaded in 1967 and the creation of the State of Palestine with East Jerusalem as its capital.
