  1. In conclusion, my delegation would like to reiterate its full support and consistent stand for the just cause of the Palestinian people regaining their legitimate national rights, including the establishment of an independent State, with East Jerusalem as its capital.

  2. The Security Council, whose mandate is the maintenance of international peace and security, should pay due attention to the changed realities of today and take strong measures to achieve a fair solution of the Palestinian question and not turn away from Israel's inhuman crimes, such as the blockade of the Gaza Strip and the expansion of settlement units. If the Security Council, despite the demands of the international community, continues to protect only the interests of a certain specific country in support of Israel, that will have a negative effect on peace and security in the Middle East and damage more than ever before the credibility and reliability of the international community in the Security Council.

  3. It is today a world trend to support the justified struggle of the Palestinian people for an independent State, with East Jerusalem as its capital, within 1967 borders. The number of countries in the United Nations recognizing the State of Palestine has reached more than 130, which represents a majority of the States Members of the United Nations. The non-member observer State status of Palestine is a great development that encourages us all. That reality will surely bring about the realization of Palestine's full United Nations membership and the establishment of an independent sovereign State of Palestine.

  4. Israel's undisguised confiscation ofPalestinian land under the pretext of settlement expansion shows clearly that it is none other than Israel that is aggravating the situation and seriously threatening peace and security in the Middle East. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea strongly denounces Israel for its settlement expansion and demands that Israel immediately stop any act undermining peace and security in the region and withdraw its forces from all illegally occupied Arab and Palestinian territories. Israel's continuous provocations are unthinkable without the support and protection of the United States. That clearly shows the hypocritical nature of the United States policy towards peace in the Middle East. The establishment of an independent State of Palestine is an inalienable sovereign right of the Palestinian people.

  5. Israel has turned a deaf ear to the just and fair demands of the international community and continued to cling to the aggressive and inhuman policies of illegally occupying Arab territories, expanding settlements, blocking the Gaza Strip, ruthlessly killing civilians and so on. Israel recently decided to build thousands of new settlement units while confiscating land and seizing money, seriously threatening the basic right to existence of the Palestinian people, as a political reprisal against Palestinian observer State status in the United Nations. Those are rampant provocative acts and challenges against the majority of States Members of the United Nations, international law and related United Nations resolutions that supported the founding of an independent Palestinian State and durable peace and stability in the Middle East.

  6. The granting of non-member observer status to Palestine in the United Nations was a historic event that reflected the desire of the international community to put an end to the decades-long Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories and to realize the Palestinian people's right to self-determination. My delegationjoined in sponsoring and supporting the resolution, along with the majority of the States Members of the United Nations. My delegation would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Palestine once again on its status in the United Nations. It is, however, deeply regrettable that the Palestinian situation is deteriorating instead of moving in a positive direction, despite the absolute support and the efforts of the international community.

  7. Mr. President, allow me first of all to express my thanks to you for having convened this meeting. I wish also to express my appreciation to Mr. Robert Serry, United Nations Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, for his briefing to the Council today. My delegation would like to associate itself with the statement to be delivered by the representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement. As witnessed by the world last year, on 29 November, General Assembly resolution 67/19, on the non-member observer state status of Palestine, was adopted by the General Assembly with the support of an overwhelming majority.

  8. My delegation takes this opportunity to clarify once again the principled position of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea that all disputes should be settled peacefully through dialogue and negotiation between the parties concerned, without interference from outside forces. In that connection, my delegation is of the view that the Syrian issue should also be resolved peacefully through dialogue, without any foreign intervention, in conformity with the fundamental principles of the United Nations Charter, such as respect for sovereignty and non-interference.

  9. It is also my delegation's position that the Security Council should pay due attention to the issue of Palestinian membership of the United Nations, which is on the international agenda, and make it a reality without further delay, now that more than 130 countries have officially recognized Palestinian statehood. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea recognized Palestine as an independent sovereign State in 1988, and since then has given its unreserved support and solidarity to the Palestinian people's struggle for statehood. In that regard, my delegation firmly reiterates our continuing support for the just cause of the Palestinian and Arab peoples.

  10. That is entirely due to their continued occupation by Israel and the prejudicial Middle East policies of the United States, which sides actively with the occupying Power. My delegation believes that the Security Council should give those high-priority issues the attention they deserve. Establishing an independent State of Palestine is an inalienable sovereign right of the Palestinian people. We must put an end to the Israeli military occupation and to the violations of human rights in Palestine as soon as possible, in order to allow the Palestinian people to exercise their full right to national self-determination. The peace process between Palestine and Israel should be carried out on the basis of those principles.

  11. To that end, many resolutions have been adopted in the United Nations and various proposals, including the Arab Peace Initiative, have been put on the table, but the prospects for success remain unclear. The Israeli military occupation of Palestine and East Jerusalem continues, as it does in other Arab territories, and its settlement activities in particular are expanding, posing a challenge to the international community. The result has been a deadlocked peace process and serious difficulties for, and threats to, peace and security in the Middle East. This year alone, the Israeli bombing in the Gaza Strip and its continuing merciless use of force have killed many innocent civilians, including women and children. The situation in Lebanon and in the occupied Syrian Golan is the same.

  12. Allow me, first of all, Madam President, to acknowledge your convening of this open debate of the Security Council on the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question. My delegation expects that today's meeting will help bring about a practical resolution of the Palestinian issue as soon as possible. We wish to thank Mr. Lynn Pascoe, Under-Secretary-General for Political Affairs, for his comprehensive overview of the current state of the Palestinian question. We would also like to express our full support for the statement made by His Excellency Mr. Maged Abdelaziz, Permanent Representative of the Arab Republic of Egypt, on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement. The establishment of an independent State of Palestine, with East Jerusalem as its capital, has been unanimously called for by the international community.

  13. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea officially recognized Palestine as a State in 1988, and since then has extended unreserved support and solidarity to the struggle of the Palestinian people to establish an independent State with East Jerusalem as its capital. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is fully committed to standing firmly with the Palestinian and Arab people in their struggle for their just cause until their final victory and the problem's final solution. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea unreservedly supports Palestine's full membership of the United Nations.

  14. This reality urgently requires the international community to find the earliest possible solution to the Middle East problem. The core element here is the solution of the Palestinian question as soon as possible. There can be no lasting peace and security in the Middle East and the Arab world unless the Palestine issue is completely resolved. On 23 September, during the general debate of the General Assembly at its sixty-sixth session, President Abbas of Palestine formally submitted an application for the full membership of Palestine in the United Nations. This event of great significance received overwhelming support from the international community.

  15. I wish to thank the Nigerian delegation for its timely convening of this important meeting of the Security Council. Allow me also to associate myself with the statement made by Ambassador Maged Abdelaziz, Permanent Representative of the Arab Republic of Egypt, on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement. More than 60 years have passed since the international community launched its efforts to settle the Palestinian and Middle East problem, which was set off by Israeli occupation of the Arab territories in 1948. Nevertheless, no significant progress has yet been made. The Palestinian lands and other Arab territories remain under Israel's military occupation. The use of armed force, the expansion of settlements and the blockade of the Gaza Strip continue to prevail.

  16. Let me begin by joining with previous speakers in expressing deep condolences and sympathy to the victims of the powerful earthquake in Turkey and their families. My delegation also takes this opportunity to express deep condolences for the passing of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Sultan Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defence and Aviation, and Inspector General of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Furthermore, my delegation has received the sad news from the Pakistani Mission on the passing of Nusrat Bhutto, former Chairperson of the Pakistan's People Party, Government minister and the mother of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. In this regard, my delegation expresses its deep condolences. It is my honour to speak before the Security Council with regard to the Palestinian question.
