International community key to peace, Palestinian ambassadress says

Montevideo, Oct 15 (Prensa Latina) The Palestinian ambassador to Uruguay, Nadya Rasheed, urged the international community to promote a true peace process to put an end to the hell that her people are suffering.

The diplomat considered the action of international organizations, including the UN Security Council, to be key to this end.

Also the fulfillment of resolutions and accountability before international tribunals to put an end to the occupation of the Palestinian territory and the “institutionalized racism” against them by Israel.

She stressed that only with international cooperation will it be possible to “put an end to so much human suffering and for peace and coexistence to prevail”.

She denounced that in the current escalation of war, children are the main victims, among those killed and detained by the occupiers.

Israel does not comply with the International Convention on the Rights of the Child in the occupied Palestinian territories, but neither does it comply with the Israeli Palestinian children, and this is confirmed by the International Court of Justice which condemns the occupying force, said Rasheed.

In declarations to the Caras y Caretas newspaper, she argued that for more than three decades more than two million Palestinians have been suffering a blockade by land, air and sea, imposed by a wall and more than 645 checkpoints.

Hundreds of settlers roam Palestinian territory besieging, harassing, maiming and murdering Palestinian civilian citizens, burning and destroying their property, she denounced.
