‘The Palestinian ambassador to the United Nations says the Palestinians are discussing with Arab countries a new draft resolution against Israel’s unlawful expansion of settlements in the occupied territories.
Riyad Mansour said Friday that the motion would clarify the UN Security Council (UNSC) position on Israeli settler units, which are considered as illegitimate and an impediment to the so-called peace process.
“We’ve been saying that if that is the assessment of the Security Council, then it is the responsibility of the Security Council to take action to stop settlement activity,” Mansour said, adding, “We feel that this has to materialize in some form of action.”’
