Arab foreign ministers to hold emergency meeting on Saturday concerning Jerusalem

Foreign Ministers of the Arab League will, on Saturday, hold an emergency meeting on Jerusalem.

The meeting was requested by Palestine and Jordan, with the support of Morocco, as a result of the US President’s forthcoming announcement regarding the recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

According to a memorandum presented by the State of Palestine representatives, the meeting covers the Arab nations’ considerations and actions as a result of this possible change in US policy position that affects the legal and historical status of Jerusalem.

The Palestinian memorandum confirmed that this forthcoming declaration is a flagrant violation of international law, relevant UN Security Council resolutions and the Fourth Geneva Convention.
