The Council expressed its deep dissatisfaction with the policy of double standards and double standards adopted by Western countries, especially the United States, and its weak position and silence regarding Israeli practices and violations of Palestinian rights, its absolute support for the occupying authority, and the obstruction of any efforts aimed at accepting Palestine as a full member of the United Nations. This has entrenched the chronic failure to comply with the relevant United Nations and Security Council resolutions, and deprived the Palestinian people of any serious political horizon for resolving the protracted conflict.

In this context, the Council calls on the international community, especially the UN Security Council; To carry out its responsibilities, stop the ongoing violence, provide protection for the Palestinian people, and end the racist and settlement practices of the occupation authorities, thus sparing the region new levels of tension and instability.
