The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) asserted its backing for the Palestinian people in their just struggle to recover their legitimate rights. On the occasion of the 45th anniversary of the Palestine Land Day (which takes place on March 30 of each year), OIC stressed the need to work on achieving peace in accordance with the UN resolutions and the Arab Peace Initiative, which are based on the two-state solution. The President of the Arab Parliament, Adel Al-Asoumi condemned the settlement policies carried out by Israel in the Occupied Palestinian territories, which violates international law resolutions that reject all forms of settlement in the OPTs, including the city of Jerusalem. The President of the Arab Parliament called on the international community to assume its responsibility towards the Palestinian people and their cause, stressing the need to mobilize the international efforts to reach a final and sustainable solution to the Palestinian cause that is based on ending the occupation and establishing an independent Palestinian state on the borders of June 4, 1967, with Jerusalem as its capital.
