Minister Attaf reaffirms Algeria’s commitment to the two-state solution and the establishment of a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, based on the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the discussion on Israeli occupation, Attaf invoked Algeria’s stance on South Africa’s apartheid, emphasizing Algeria’s support for the National Conference, Nelson Mandela, and their struggle against racial discrimination.
