CAIRO, July 21 (KUNA) -- The Israeli Knesset's approval of the "Jewish nation-state" law required a strong Arab rebuttal to save the Palestinian cause from its current dire situation, said Speaker of the Kuwaiti National Assembly Marzouq Al-Ghanim Saturday.
Delivering his speech to the 28th session of the Arab Inter-Parliamentary Union, Speaker Al-Ghanim affirmed that the Palestinian cause has a geopolitical and security significance, which required utmost attention on part of the Arab countries.
Al-Ghanim cited His Highness the Amir of Kuwait Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah's speech at the recently held Istanbul OIC extraordinary summit, which mainly focused on the Palestinian cause and its importance to regional stability and security.
The Kuwaiti top parliamentarian warned of the serious consequences of ignoring the just cause of the Palestinian people, affirming that if the matter was left unsolved, the issue will have an impact on the Arab world.
Speaker Al-Ghanim called on his Arab brethren to rise above the feelings of loss and desperation, focusing all needed efforts to resolve the dilemmas threatening the Palestinian cause.
The Israeli aggressors are keen on pushing Arabs towards mental and moral defeat; however, this should be countered with solidarity and a firm stance to foil Israel's attempts at Arab and Islamic disunity, said Al-Ghanim.
He affirmed that the State of Kuwait, along with all Arab and Islamic nations, would find a way to resolve the Palestinian cause once and for all to ensure justice will prevail. (end) ms.gta
