The United Arab Emirates supports the opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) that Israeli policies, including the expansion of settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, violate international law.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) expressed the UAE’s rejection of all measures aimed at altering the historical and legal status of the Occupied Palestinian Territory and all practices in contravention of resolutions on international legitimacy, which threaten further escalation and instability in the region, and impede endeavours to achieve peace and stability.
The Ministry stressed the need to support all regional and international efforts to advance the peace process in the Middle East, as well as end illegal practices that undermine the two-state solution and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.
