Pakistan’s position on the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territory is being presented to the World Court by Law Minister Ahmed Irfan Aslam. He began by saying, “Pakistan has always been a defender of the Palestinian people and their right to self-determination.” “On the first day of the Sixth Day War, Pakistan was the one who proposed the first resolution of the General Assembly concerning Israel’s invasion of Jerusalem and its subsequent actions to alter the city’s status.” He went on, “Since then, Pakistan has remained committed to playing its part and has continued to engage in the important question of internal justice.” Pakistan has stated that the rights of the Palestinian people to self-determination are seriously hampered by Israeli actions.
