President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu sent a powerful message on Friday, marking the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, reaffirming the Maldives' unwavering commitment to the Palestinian struggle for justice, peace, and dignity.
In his statement, President Muizzu emphasized that the Maldives' support for the Palestinian cause is deeply ingrained and shared by Maldivians across the nation. He condemned the generational injustice faced by Palestinians, who continue to endure violence, dispossession, displacement, and oppression, calling it a persistent stain on shared global history.
The President remarked that the daily suffering of Palestinians strengthens the international community's moral obligation to act, urging nations to confront this enduring injustice and refuse to turn a blind eye.
He called on the global community to unite in demanding an immediate end to the Israeli occupation, halting arms sales to Israel, and ensuring accountability for those responsible for war crimes. President Muizzu underscored the critical role of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in supporting Palestinian refugees for over 75 years, urging nations to sustain their vital humanitarian efforts.
The President strongly condemned Israel's ongoing violations of international law, including acts of genocide and aggression against Palestinians. He described these actions as an affront to the international multilateral framework and stressed that protecting Palestinian rights is a shared global responsibility.
In his message, President Muizzu declared that there is no greater obligation than the pursuit of justice and liberation for the Palestinian people. He stated that for Maldivians, Palestine’s struggle is inherently connected to their sense of justice, adding that the Maldives remain steadfast in its commitment to advocating for the rights, dignity, and freedom of the Palestinian people.
The President concluded by reiterating the Maldives’ belief in a sustainable solution, achievable only through the establishment of an independent and sovereign State of Palestine based on the pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
