Cabinet welcomes UNGA resolution on Israel’s occupation

Cabinet has welcomed the United Nations General Assembly’s (UNGA) historic resolution that declared Israel’s occupation of East Jerusalem, the West Bank, and Gaza unlawful, and mandating the complete withdrawal of Israeli settlers and soldiers.

“This resolution is not only significant for South Africa’s case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) but that developed countries such as Spain, Belgium and Japan joined most of the countries of the global South in supporting the resolution,” Minister in The Presidency Khumbudzo Ntshavheni said on Thursday in Pretoria, during a media briefing.

With the escalation of conflict in Sudan, Cabinet has called on all Sudanese to adhere to the guidelines of the African Union and Intergovernmental Authority on Development to end the conflict. 

“South Africa stands ready to offer its expertise to assist parties, role players and other relevant stakeholders to collectively work towards finding lasting peace in the Sudan,” the Minister said.

Meanwhile, Cabinet noted President Ramaphosa’s Working Visit to the Kingdom of Lesotho at the invitation of King Letsie III. 

“During the visit, the President attended the 58th Lesotho Independence Day and Bicentennial Celebration, and also delivered remarks during the celebrations to commemorate the Basotho Nation’s rich heritage,” Ntshavheni said. – SAnews.gov.za
