Leaders of the Arab Gulf countries welcomed the US efforts to revive the Palestinian-Israeli negotiations, while condemning Israeli's settlement policy, and its unjust siege and annexation of Arab lands. The leaders, in a final communique at the end of their 34th Summit, said the comprehensive, just and lasting peace in the Middle East would only be achieved through the Israeli full withdrawal from Arab lands it occupied in 1967, the establishment of the independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital in line with relevant UN resolutions and the Arab peace initiative. They hoped the peace talks between the Palestinians and Israelis would succeed, calling on the international community to continue support to the peaceful quest of the Palestinian people to win their "legitimate rights." They condemned the Israeli government's settlement policy, the unjust siege and annexation of Arab territories in complete violation of UN resolutions, and were stumbling block against the peace efforts. They called on the international community take concrete measures to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people.
