State of Palestine Applauds Non-Aligned Movement's Support Against Israel at ICJ

The State of Palestine applauds the declaration by the Non-Aligned

Movement Member States in the 19th Summit of Heads of States and

Government meeting in Kampala welcoming the proceedings by South

Africa against Israel at the International Court of Justice for violations of

the Genocide Convention and the request for provisional measures,

including suspension of Israel's genocidal war.

The declaration is in accordance with commitment of NAM Member States

to UN Charter and universality of international law, without selectivity

and double standards.

NAM Member States also reaffirmed the centrality of the question of

Palestine and reiterated the unity and longstanding, common, and

principled positions to bring an end Israel's colonialism, occupation, and

oppression.

NAM joins the OIC and League of Arab States, presenting the majority of

States and peoples around the world, unified in upholding their moral,

legal, and political responsibilities and obligations towards the Palestinian

people and the Palestinian struggle for dignity, freedom, and

independence.

We urge the remaining States to uphold their duties towards the human

community refrain from politicizing the ICJ and the legal proceedings.

Either States commit to the law or commit to violating it.
