ISTANBUL-SABA
Yemen has confirmed its commitment to the decisions of the Islamic summits and to what will come out of the OIC's 7th extraordinary summit in Istanbul, Turkey, regarding the latest developments in Palestine.
Addressing the 7th summit on President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi's behalf, Yemen's Foreign Minister Abdul-Malik al-Mekhlafi said "the implementation of the United State's decision to move its embassy in Israel to al-Quds (Jerusalem) on Monday 14th May constituted a grave violation and breach of the UN Security Council's and the UN General Assembly's resolutions."
"The US implementation of this decision which aims to change the legal and historical status of the occupied al-Quds constitutes as much provocation and violation of the Palestinian people's rights as a breakof the international commitment to the two-state solution …and this will inevitably lead to undermining the efforts of achieving peace and threatens to push the region to more violence, chaos and instability," he said.
He condemned Israel's massacre on Monday against the defenseless Palestinians who were protesting against the US embassy move. He called for working toward the issuance of a UN Security Council resolution that condemns the massacre and form an international investigation panel on it.
