The government calls on international
community intervention
The Government has admitted that the issue of Palestine is the most complicated in the contemporary global relations and poses a great threat to peace, security and tranquility in the world. MOblog reports from Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
Speaking to invited dignitaries during the commemoration of the International Day of Solidarity for the people of Palestine in Dar es Salaam , the Director of Middle East Amb. Yahaya Simba, representing the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Mr. John Haule said that, the unwillingness of the international community to take decisive action, political, military and territorial occupation of Palestine over the years has left millions of them to suffer.
“Hostilities between key players in the region and ultraconservative resistance to change, have all added up to complicate the situation.
“The interplay of the above led to a situation where the international community is simply seen to be doing too little and too late on the Palestine question, causing one party to the conflict to maintain pre-established positions that allow limited flexibility towards an acceptable solution,” he said.
Amb. Simba said that the status quo on settlements in occupied Palestinian territories continuously abrogated against UN Resolutions although on the other hand it is the duty of the international community to support national independence and sovereignty of the Palestinians people.
Amb. Simba further said that through the able visionary, courageous and wise leadership of Mahmoud Abbas, more than 130 United Nations (UN) member states have recognized the State of Palestine; the People of Palestine have been granted ‘non-member observer state’ status in the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), and Palestine is now a full member of UNESCO.
