DUBAI: UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed and his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron have reiterated their condemnation of the recent Israeli attack on Qatari territory.
The two leaders, during a phone call, stressed the attack – which targeted Hamas officials – constituted a violation of the Qatar’s sovereignty and a threat to regional security and stability, state news WAM reported.
They also emphasized the importance of intensifying international efforts to advance the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on the two-state solution, as the path to achieving lasting stability in the Middle East, the report added.
The two leaders also reaffirmed their rejection of any Israeli attempts to annex the West Bank or parts of the occupied Palestinian territories, or to forcibly displace Palestinians.
They stressed that such actions would undermine regional stability and pose a serious threat to the implementation of the two-state solution in accordance with the principles of international law, WAM reported.
