THE ARAB League (AL) has reaffirmed that stability and peace in the Middle East will only be achieved after settling the Palestinian cause and implementing the two-state solution.
The league said in a statement that “any attempts to displace the Palestinian people from their land, either through deportation, annexation or settlement expansion,” have proved to be failures and are rejected as a violation of international law.
It described the forced displacement of people from their land as “ethnic cleansing.”
The statement added that circumventing the fixed principles and stable determinants based on Arab and international consensus would only prolong the conflict.

The statement came after U.S. President Donald Trump proposed on Saturday to relocate Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to Egypt and Jordan. (Xinhua/NAN)
