Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune reaffirmed that the foundation for resolving the Middle East conflict remains the establishment of a Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders, with Jerusalem as its capital. He made this statement on Sunday in Cairo during a press conference with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
“Algeria spares no effort within the UN Security Council to put an end to the genocide being perpetrated [by Israel] against Palestinians,” Tebboune declared, as reported by Ennahar Online.
“Our stance has never changed and will never change: the only solution to the conflict is the creation of a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders, with Jerusalem as its capital,” Tebboune continued.
He commended the “resilience of Gaza's residents amid a genocide carried out by Israeli occupation troops” and praised President el-Sisi’s initiative to implement a two-day ceasefire in Gaza and release several hostages.
As a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council, Algeria has been particularly attentive to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and the situation in Lebanon.
