“The Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity provided food aid. The Moroccan hospital in the Gaza Strip will also provide medical care for the Palestinian victims of the most recent incidents as well as for other citizens. In conclusion, Morocco's position on this conflict is firm and based on the Arab Peace Initiative, the principle of achieving peace and the terms of reference relevant to the establishment of an independent Palestinian State, with East Jerusalem as its capital, within the 4 June 1967 borders, living side by side with the Israel in peace, security and harmony. As it has in the past, Morocco will spare no effort to engage with all initiatives that support the peace process and seeks a political settlement that will lead to security and stability in the region.”

“The two parties have to seriously participate and assume their responsibilities. The Kingdom of Morocco has always stood beside the Palestinians and supported their just cause. This support is not limited to political and diplomatic one in international bodies, but involves a humanitarian aspect which deals with the Palestinian human being who yearns to live a decent life. That is why His Majesty King Mohammed V1 has personally ensured the delivery of humanitarian assistance to the Palestinian people via the Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca this past May. That process provided the Palestinian people with food and medicine, and ensured the establishment of a field hospital by the Moroccan Royal Armed Forces, as well as the provision of blankets and essential medications.”

“The conference addressed the Palestinian question along with the negative consequences of the stalled negotiations. His Majesty King Mohammed VI, who chairs the Jerusalem Committee of the Organization of the Islamic Conference, said in his statement: "First, we reiterate that our support for the Palestinian question is absolute and untiring. This is a promise that will always be honoured by Morocco until the Palestinian people regain all their inalienable rights under international law and in accordance with the attestation of land and history." His Majesty also added that it is the duty of the international community to pool its efforts in order to bring this issue to a fair and secure negotiating table and on a firm track, based on a realistic vision and a fixed timeframe and in line with the existing terms of reference.”

“This stands in the way of launching a peace process on a firm basis. The ongoing building settlements contrary to the United Nations resolutions, especially resolution 2334 (2016), is an act of provocation against the Palestinians and the international community. Unilateral policies that flout international legitimacy and international law have hampered the achievement of a two-State solution comprising an Israeli State and a Palestinian State, with East Jerusalem as its capital and within 4 June 1967 borders. Given our faith in the just Palestinian cause and our unconditional support for it, the Kingdom of Morocco hosted in the capital Rabat, from 26 to 28 June 2018, the fifth International Conference on Jerusalem under the slogan "The Palestinian question after 50 years of occupation and 25 years of Oslo accords".”

“The situation in the occupied Palestinian territories continues to deteriorate owing to the Judaization and settlement policies, land-grabbing and coercion exercised by the occupying Israeli authorities against the Palestinian people in a systematic fashion, stoking more tensions and frustration. In the past few days, we have seen these facts illustrated. The Israeli authorities have used unprecedented force against unarmed civilians, causing several victims. This has only exacerbated the situation, perpetuating the cycle of violence and counter-violence. The use of force and violence has never led to peace or to peaceful solutions. We are now witnessing the total absence of the conditions necessary for a dignified life, owing to the siege and acute shortage of essential goods.”

“Mr. Oussihamou (Morocco) (spoke in Arabic): First of all, I would like to thank you, Mr. President, for having organized this debate on the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question. This initiative reflects the importance that your country attaches to the Palestinian question, in particular given the current conditions. I would also like to thank Mr. Nickolay Mladenov, Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process and Personal Representative of the Secretary-General, for his briefing on this issue. We continue to monitor with great sorrow the deteriorating situation in the Middle East, in particular in Palestine.”

“Morocco calls on the international community, in particular the Security Council, to do their utmost and assume their responsibility and push for a permanent settlement of the Palestinian question based on international resolutions, which would further contribute to peace and security in the Middle East.”

“It would undermine prospects for peace and lead to further extremism and violence. As part of the Arab ministerial delegation of the Arab Peace Initiative, and commissioned by the League of Arab States, Morocco has followed up on the repercussions of the dangerous unilateral decision. In conclusion, the Kingdom of Morocco remains an active partner in all initiatives aimed at meeting the aspirations of the Palestinian people. We renew our call for the protection of the historic and legal status of the city of Jerusalem, and of all the rights of the Palestinian people, including their right to live in dignity in their own State along the borders of 4 June 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital.”

“Israel continues its illegal settlement-building and judaization activities in the occupied Palestinian territories. Unfortunately, we can find no prospects for reaching a solution to the Palestinian question. We have closely followed the recent decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Given that Jerusalem is a symbol of tolerance, peace and coexistence, His Majesty King Mohammed VI, as Chair of the Al-Quds Committee, has expressed his deep personal concern, and the concern of Arab and Muslim countries and peoples following that decision. In that regard, on 6 December 2017, His Majesty King Mohammed VI sent a letter to the Secretary- General in which His Majesty stressed that any threat to the legal and historic status of Jerusalem would lead to a religious conflict and to further tension and violence.”

“We would like to recall the intensive efforts made by His Majesty King Mohammed VI in support of the cause of the Palestinian people and of their legitimate and just aspirations, including the establishment of an independent Palestinian State along the borders of 4 June 1967 and with East Jerusalem as its capital. Our firm position regarding the Palestinian question aims at achieving just and lasting peace in the Middle East based on relevant international resolutions, the Arab Peace Initiative and the two-State solution. We have always supported all initiatives leading to reviving the stalled political process since 2014, by creating the necessary conditions for a return to the negotiating table. The international community is preoccupied with conflicts in the region and at the international level.”

Morocco and His Majesty King Mohammed VI, Chair ofthe Al-Quds Committee, attach great importance to the Palestinian question and the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people and consider them a national issue.”
