The Kuwaiti Foreign Ministry on Saturday welcomed the Australian foreign minister’s decision to re-use the term “occupied Palestinian territories”, and to consider Israeli occupation settlements “illegitimate” as per international law.
The ministry, in a press release, commended the Australian government’s stance that came in line with international law and international legitimacy.
It, further, reiterated Kuwait’s relentless and principled position on the Palestinian cause, and its support for the Palestinian people and their choices.
The ministry also restated Kuwait’s backing for all efforts to achieve comprehensive and just peace based on the bi-state solution, including an independent Palestinian state on the pre-1967 border with East Jerusalem being its capital.
