It is possible to achieve fair peace in the Middle East only through the creation of an independent Palestinian state.
This was stated by Iraqi Foreign Minister, Deputy Prime Minister Fouad Hussein, addressing a high-level UN international conference in New York, dedicated to the settlement of the Palestinian issue.
"In the Middle East, the Middle East can only be achieved by the creation of an independent Palestinian state. Fair peace in the region cannot be reached at the expense of the Palestinian people's rights, "said the Foreign Minister. His speech was broadcast on the UN website. "The international community pursues a policy of double standards on the Palestinian issue."
"We reject the deportation of Palestinians from their lands and hunger against the residents of the Gaza Strip.
It is necessary to reach a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and provide access to assistance there, "he said.
