The Palestinian National Council (PNC) confirmed that Palestinian people and their leadership are steadfast in the face of the conspiracy, and are committed to their eternal right to return and the independent state with Jerusalem as its capital, and will fail all plans and projects aimed at liquidating their cause.

In a statement, PNC said on the occasion of the 52nd anniversary of the relapse of June 1967, in which Israel occupied the rest of the Palestinian land (West Bank and Gaza Strip, including East Jerusalem), the Syrian Golan and the Egyptian Sinai: there is no peace, no security and no stability except with the ending of the occupation and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital on the borders of 4th of June 1967 and the right of return of the refugees to their homes in accordance with Resolution 194.

PNC stressed that the road to peace, stability and prosperity in the region will firstly go through ending the Israeli occupation of Palestine, in accordance with the resolutions of international legitimacy, and not to bypass the solution into economic alternatives, conferences and deals based on biblical ideas and dreams of the settlers lobby in the Trump’s administration, and serving the dreams of the Israeli rightists led by Netanyahu's government.

After 52 years of its occupation, PNC confirmed that the city of Jerusalem and its Muslim and Christian people are steadfast in the face of aggression and Judaization in its various forms. Jerusalem will not surrender to Trump’s administration and its aggressive decisions by recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel the occupying state.

PNC called on the United Nations to implement its resolutions on the Palestinian issue, and not to stand idly by on the continuation of the occupation and its crimes against Palestinian people. It’s the time for the international community to hold Israel accountable for its crimes and violations of international resolutions and non-compliance with the charters and treaties on which civilized nations relations are based.

PNC renewed the call for the international protection of our Palestinian people and our land from Israeli military and settlers’ terrorism who continue their daily aggression against Palestinians in their towns, villages and camps.

PNC reminded the parliaments of the world and its federations, that Israel still continues to occupy Palestine, works by all means to control the land and change its features, commit murders, detention, ethnic cleansing, and violates international legitimacy and human rights conventions. Therefore, it is the responsibility of free parliaments and their countries to condemn the occupation and recognize the Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital in accordance with the resolutions of international legitimacy.

PNC also reiterated the continuation of the Palestinian struggle against the Israeli occupation in all legitimate forms and means, until we fulfill all the rights to return to homeland and establishing of a sovereign state with Jerusalem as its capital.
