Tunisia reasserts support for Palestine's bid for full membership in UN

Tunisia reasserted its unwavering support for Palestine's bid for a full membership in the United Nations Organisation (UNO). According to a statement released by the Foreign Ministry on Monday, this legitimate request is a very significant step for the just cause of the Palestinian people who have been struggling for long decades to recover their natural and legitimate rights, on top of them their right to build their independent State with Al-Quds as capital, exercise full sovereignty on their land and live in an environment of peace, stability and development together with their neighbours. In this regard, Tunisia exhorts all UN members, particularly those of the Security Council, to respond positively to this legitimate Palestinian request, saying that endorsement of this request will certainly consecrate the principles of law and justice, rehabilitate international legality and foster good will to put an end to the conflict in the Middle-East, on the basis of a just, lasting and comprehensive settlement that preserves the rights and security of all stakeholders. In the same statement, Tunisia reiterates constant commitment to support the Palestinian people's struggle and its adherence to all initiatives aimed to reach a peaceful settlement of the conflict in the Middle-East.
