Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh called today for an end to the comprehensive Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
Shtayyeh made the remarks during a meeting with Portuguese Foreign Minister João Gomes Cravinho, and Slovenian Foreign Minister Tanja Fajon at his office in Ramallah.
“We want to stop the comprehensive aggression launched by the occupation forces against our people in Gaza and the West Bank,” said Shtayyeh, calling for holding Israel responsible for opening all crossings to bring humanitarian aid into Gaza and not limiting the entry of aid through the Rafah crossing with Egypt.
He also called for allowing the Palestinian people to return freely to their homes in the northern Gaza Strip.
The prime minister affirmed that the attacks of the occupation forces and terrorist colonists in the West Bank must be stopped, stressing that there is an urgent need for international intervention to release Palestinian tax funds held by the occupation govern
ment.
Shtayyeh called for forming an international front to recognize the Palestinian state, support its full membership in the United Nations, end the occupation, and implement the two-state solution.
‘There must be a comprehensive political solution in all Palestinian territories to end the occupation and preserve the unity of the Palestinian people and lands,’ he stressed.
