  1. “We need to remain steadfast in our efforts aimed at assisting the Palestinian people, not only for humanitarian reasons, but also to enhance the capacity of Palestinians to fully govern themselves. To this end, we need to renew our commitment to supporting all possible avenues by lending our utmost assistance to the work of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East and by strengthening our joint efforts through any possible means. Indonesia wishes to reiterate that a peaceful resolution of the Palestinian issue can only be found in the vision oftwo States coexisting within internationally agreed parameters. We call on the international community to come together to put the peace process back on track and implement the two-State solution.”

  2. “In resolution 2234 (2016), inter alia, the Council stressed that it would not, I repeat, would not, recognize any changes to the 4 June 1967 lines, including with regard to Jerusalem, other than those agreed by the parties through negotiations. The Council affirmed that Israel's establishment of settlements in the Palestinian territory constitutes a flagrant violation of international law. Not only does it threaten peace between them and in the region, it also promises permanent insecurity. Lastly, I would like to also remind us all of the suffering of the Palestinian people in the occupied Palestinian territories and of Palestinian refugees. While we defend the hope of a two-State solution, let us not forget the humanitarian crisis facing our Palestinian brothers and sisters.”

  3. “If anything, the plan would bury the prospects for a negotiated two- State solution between Israelis and Palestinians upon which United Nations policy has rested for decades and the work of the Quartet has depended for so long. Secretary-General Guterres has already described the plan as being devastating to any hope of peace. Similarly, at the extraordinary meeting of Council of Foreign Ministers of the Member States of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation last Sunday in Saudi Arabia, the Organization strongly rejected and condemned Mr. Netanyahu's stated intention. My second point is that the Council must assert its authority in the event of any violation of international law and relevant United Nations resolutions. For the Council, this is a very straightforward matter.”

  4. “At that meeting, Member States expressed their views on the way forward for the Middle East, underlining the primacy of multilateralism and international law in our endeavour to achieve lasting peace in the Middle East. Last week, however, the incumbent Prime Minister of Israel openly declared that if re-elected, he would annex parts of the West Bank. Against that backdrop, I would like to stress the following points. First, we must denounce any act that undermines multilateralism and international law. There are times when it is dangerous to mince words. This is one ofthem. Indonesia unequivocally condemns Mr. Netanyahu's arrogant proposal. We affirm that such a proposal is not designed to - nor can it possibly - yield security or stability for Israel or for the region.”

  5. “Let me begin by thanking the delegation of the Russian Federation for convening this briefing and for presiding over the Security Council for the month of September. I would also like to thank Mr. Nickolay Mladenov, Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, for his briefing. On behalf of my delegation, let me also welcome the Foreign Minister of Palestine, Mr. Riad Al-Malki, and the Foreign Minister of Jordan, Mr. Ayman Safadi, to this meeting. Exactly one month ago, in this Chamber, the Council met in the spirit of responsibility to address the agenda item entitled "Maintenance of international peace and security: Challenges to peace and security in the Middle East" (see S/PV.8600).”
