  • UN General Assembly vote reflects Israel's isolation; shifts in US position noted: Aboul Gheit
    التاريخ: 2023/12/13
    Mr. Ahmed Aboul Gheit, the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, welcomed the substantial vote in favour of the United Nations General Assembly resolution advocating an immediate ceasefire. He emphasised that the overwhelming majority supporting the resolution accurately reflects the global public opinion, while countries opposing it find themselves on the wrong side of the issue.
    Quoting Mr. Aboul Gheit, Gamal Roshdy, the Secretary-General's spokesperson, stated that the significant vote favouring an immediate ceasefire highlights Israel's isolation and exposes the inconsistencies in its arguments for conducting a brutal and indiscriminate war against civilians in the Gaza Strip.
    In a related context, Roshdy clarified that the Secretary-General of the League is closely monitoring developments in the American position concerning Israel's war on the Gaza Strip, particularly President Joe Biden's recent statements. Mr. Aboul Gheit is observing a shift in this position, especially regarding the recognition of the implications of the Israeli military operation's clear randomness, leading to thousands of civilian casualties. This exposure further reveals the ideological motives driving the Israeli right, striving relentlessly to fulfil their plans of ethnic cleansing or forced displacement of Palestinians.

    Mr. Aboul Gheit noted that the development in the American position has been delayed and remains insufficient to halt the bloody war. He expressed hope that the United States will adopt a morally and politically correct stance by exerting pressure on Israel to cease the Gaza massacre, preventing the fuelling of extremism in the region for decades to come.
