ArmInfo. Turkiye has welcomed Armenia's recognition of the State of Palestine.
"We welcome Armenia's decision to recognize the State of Palestine,
following countries such as Spain, Ireland, Norway and Slovenia.
"As we have always emphasized, the recognition of Palestine is a
requirement of international law, justice and conscience.
"Turkiye will continue its efforts for more countries to recognize
Palestine."
The catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza and the ongoing
military conflict are among the primary issues on the international
political agenda that require settlement. The Republic of Armenia
categorically rejects the targeting of civilian infrastructure,
violence against the civilian population and the hostage- taking of
civilians during armed conflict, joining the international
community's demands for their unconditional release.
The Republic of Armenia has joined the resolutions of the UN General
Assembly calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Furthermore, the
Republic of Armenia is genuinely committed to establishing peace and
stability in the Middle East and lasting reconciliation between the
Jewish and Palestinian peoples. On various international platforms,
our position has consistently been in favour of a peaceful and
comprehensive settlement of the Palestinian issue, and we support the
"two-state" solution to the Israeli- Palestinian conflict. We are
convinced that this is the only way to ensure that both Palestinians
and Israelis can fulfil their legitimate aspirations.
Based on the foregoing and reaffirming our commitment to
international law and the principles of equality, sovereignty, and
peaceful coexistence of peoples, the Republic of Armenia recognizes
the State of Palestine.
