❗ RA MFA statement on the recognition of the Palestinian state
The catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza and the ongoing military conflict are one of the primary issues requiring regulation of the international political agenda today. The Republic of Armenia has denounced the targeting of civilian infrastructure, violence against civilian population and the hostage and seizure of civilians during the armed conflict and one does without conditions to release them to the international community to the requirements.
The Republic of Armenia has joined the UN GA formulas calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Moreover, the Republic of Armenia is sincerely interested in ensuring peace and stability in the Middle East, and lasting reconciliation between the Jewish and Palestinian peoples. On various international platforms, we have consistently discussed the Palestinian issue peacefully and comprehensively k in favor of adjustment and defending the “two state” principle of resolving the Israel-Palestinian conflict. We are convinced that this is the only way to ensure that Palestinians and Israelis can fulfill their legitimate aspirations.
Based on the above and reaffirming its allegiance to international law and the principles of equality, sovereignty and peaceful coexistence of peoples, the Republic of Armenia recognizes the state of Palestine.
