OIC Condemns Irresponsible Israeli Statements Against Saudi Arabia

Jeddah, February 09, 2025, SPA -- The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has strongly condemned the Israeli prime minister's unacceptable and irresponsible statements calling for "the establishment of a Palestinian state on Saudi lands," deeming it an incitement against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and an infringement on its sovereignty, national security, and territorial integrity, in flagrant violation of international law and the United Nations Charter.
The OIC stressed that these racist remarks are part of the Israeli occupying power's ongoing denial of the historical, political, and legal rights of the authentic Palestinian people in their homeland, representing a desperate Israeli attempt to circumvent the national rights of the Palestinian people, including their right to return, self-determination, and the establishment of their independent state on their national soil.
The OIC also renewed its rejection of the plans and attempts to displace the Palestinian people from their land, condemning this action as ethnic cleansing, a crime, and a flagrant violation of international law.
Meanwhile, the OIC reiterated its call for the international community to intensify efforts to end the illegal Israeli colonial occupation and settlement in Palestinian territories and to ensure the sovereignty of the State of Palestine over the land occupied since 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
The OIC also acknowledged the unwavering historical positions and tireless efforts of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in providing all forms of support to the Palestinian people and their just cause, as well as its role in mobilizing international efforts to implement the two-state solution based on relevant United Nations resolutions and the Arab Peace Initiative.
