PERSISMA, New York (United Nations) – HM King Mohammed VI is endeavoring to preserve the legal status of the Al-Quds Al-Sherif, its civilizational identity as well as its religious and cultural symbols, by facing the Israeli attempts aimed at altering the civilizational and cultural characteristics of the holy city, Moroccan Foreign Minister Taib Fassi Fihri said, on Friday in New York.

The Minister, who was speaking at the OIC Meeting for Foreign Ministers, on the sidelines of the 66th Session of the UN General Assembly, said that Morocco, under the leadership of HM King Mohammed VI, Chairman of the Al-Quds Committee, is making every effort, through contacts with international actors, to put an end to the illegal Israeli actions in the Al-Quds and the Palestinian territories.

Fassi Fihri said that HM the King’s action is based on a pragmatic approach through the construction of housing projects as well as social and education facilities, carried out by Bayt Mal Al-Quds Agency to ease the suffering of the Palestinian people.

The Islamic states, he went on, are urged to assume their full responsibility to defend this crucial cause, in accordance with a common vision in order to find a global and just solution to the Palestinian question.

Fassi Fihri added that this solution should guarantee the legitimate rights of the Palestinians for the creation of an independent state based on the borders of 1967 with East Al-Quds as its capital.

Referring to the challenges faced by the Islamic world, the Minister stressed the importance of accelerating the pace of political and economic reforms to meet the aspirations of the region’s peoples.

Morocco is convinced that the true solidarity, which is based on the principle of respect of states’ sovereignty and territorial integrity is the only means to promote the unity of the Islamic Umma to tackle the challenges it confronts.
