The ministry’s official spokesperson, Ambassador Fouad Al-Majali, affirmed the Kingdom’s absolute rejection and condemnation of what he described as a racist, discriminatory, and illegitimate law that contradicts the rules of international law, which prohibit the imposition of control over occupied territories through legislative frameworks enforced by the occupying power.
He added that the law is part of a systematic ‘Israeli’ policy targeting the Palestinian people and their inalienable rights to self-determination and to establishing an independent Palestinian state on their national soil in accordance with the two-state solution.
Al-Majali called on the international community to assume its legal and moral responsibilities and to take immediate and effective action to prevent ‘Israel’ from proceeding with the implementation of the law, and to compel it to halt its invalid decisions, legislation, and unilateral, illegitimate practices targeting the Palestinian people and their presence on their land.
