The Palestinian question and the fate of Al-Quds Asharif were and will remain the cause of all Moroccans, King, government and people, as well as a central focus of the political, diplomatic and humanitarian action that Morocco leads, under the Leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, Chairman of the Al-Quds Committee, said, Tuesday in Rabat, speaker of the House of Councillors, Enaam Mayara.
In a speech at the opening of the 52nd meeting of the Executive Committee of the Parliamentary Union of the OIC Member States (PUIC), Mayara recalled the call of His Majesty the King, reiterated on many occasions and stemming from the Sovereign’s commitment to peace, and in His capacity as Chairman of the Al-Quds Committee, to collective action for an immediate, comprehensive and lasting ceasefire, the delivery of humanitarian aid, smoothly, in sufficient quantities to the population of Gaza, and a total rejection of all forms of forced displacement, collective punishment and retaliatory actions against the Palestinians.
Mayara noted that the meeting was an opportunity to discuss mechanisms for strengthening joint Islamic action to put an immediate end to all Israeli abuses and support the creation of a secure and stable Palestinian state in accordance with the relevant international laws, noting that parliamentarians should redouble their efforts to take urgent and active action in support of this cause, insisting on the imperative of protecting civilians and condemning all aggression and violations suffered by the Palestinian people.
The Upper House speaker underlined that the member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) are facing new-generation economic, political, security, environmental and health crises, which require, more than ever, the spirit of fraternity, solidarity and synergy, and the federation of efforts to design programs and projects to meet common challenges and achieve the development of these countries.
In this regard, he noted that the Kingdom of Morocco’s African membership “always calls on us to emphasize the importance of sustainable development and the strengthening of joint Islamic cooperation for the benefit of the Organization’s African member states, and to support their economies through regional development initiatives and concrete measures aimed at ensuring the well-being and economic prosperity of African peoples”, recalling in this respect the Atlantic Initiative aimed at facilitating access to the Atlantic seaboard for the countries of the Sahel and Sahara.
