Doha, August 11 (QNA) – The State of Qatar condemned the government of the Republic of Colombia’s recognition of Israeli occupation’s sovereignty over the occupied Syrian Golan Heights. It stressed that assisting the occupation in disregarding relevant UN resolutions concerning the occupied Golan Heights, particularly Security Council Resolution 497 of 1981, will not alter the fact that the Golan Heights is occupied Arab territory, and that the imposition of Israeli laws, jurisdiction, and administration on the Golan is null and void and has no legal effect.
In a statement on Tuesday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reiterated Qatar’s principled and unwavering position that the Golan Heights is occupied Arab territory, emphasizing the need for Israel to comply with international law and withdraw from all occupied Arab territories, including the Golan Heights.
The Ministry also warned that any unilateral decisions recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights would constitute a major obstacle to achieving peace in the region. (QNA)
