In a recent statement, the Palestinian Ambassador to Algeria, Fayez Abu Aita, commended Algeria’s unwavering commitment to the Palestinian cause and its steadfast support from President Abdelmajid Tebboune. This enduring support reflects Algeria’s principled stance on the issue of Palestinian rights.
Abu Aita, during his appearance on national radio, highlighted Algeria’s proactive approach. He emphasized that Algeria doesn’t wait for Israeli crimes to react but consistently stands by the Palestinian people. He particularly lauded the significant agreement that brought Palestinian factions together in Algeria on October 13, 2022, as a critical step in supporting the Palestinian struggle.
The Palestinian Ambassador praised Algeria’s honorable and courageous stance on the Palestinian issue, applauding President Tebboune’s resolute voice on the international stage, where he called for the full and unconditional rights of the Palestinian people.
Abu Aita reiterated the Palestinian people’s unwavering determination to continue their struggle until the dream of a Palestinian state with its capital in Jerusalem becomes a reality. He underscored Algeria’s ability to contribute positively to the Palestinian cause, citing President Tebboune’s strong position at the Arab League summit on November 1 and 2, 2022.
Furthermore, Abu Aita called for decisive international action on the Palestinian issue, urging the world to hold Israel accountable for its daily transgressions. He emphasized that Israel bears full responsibility for the ongoing escalation, despite prior warnings about incursions into Al-Aqsa, settlement crimes, and attacks on Palestinian prisoners.
Abu Aita also pointed out the unity of the Palestinian leadership and the determination of the Palestinian people in resisting the occupation. He noted President Mahmoud Abbas’s call for all institutions to strengthen the resilience of the united Palestinian people, emphasizing that Palestinians are not alone in this struggle.
In conclusion, Abu Aita emphasized that discussions of de-escalation are premature, as the root cause of the escalation remains Israel’s actions. He called on Washington to compel Israel to respect the legitimate rights of Palestinians instead of sympathizing with the occupying entity. The recent events surrounding Al-Aqsa should serve as a turning point, demonstrating that the Palestinian people will not remain silent in the face of multiple injustices. With Jerusalem as the crown jewel, they take pride in defending their rights and aspirations. Algeria’s unwavering support continues to shine as a beacon of hope for the Palestinian cause.
