Arabs to Propose Resolution to ‘End Occupation’

The Arab League will on Monday propose a new resolution calling for bringing an end to “Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories”, the Turkish Anadolu news agency reported Sunday.

 

The Arab League said it plans present the resolution to the United Nations Security Council later, according to the report.

 

“Just and comprehensive peace is a strategic option,” the League wrote in the draft resolution, describing Arab-Israeli peace as an “indivisible” and “comprehensive endeavor.”

 

It added that peace would not be achieved without full Israeli withdrawal from all “occupied Palestinian and Arab territories”, including the Golan Heights, according to Anadolu.

 

The potential resolution also calls for withdrawal from territories in southern Lebanon, the Arab League said.
