MALAYSIA REJECTS ANY PLAN FOR THE FORCED RESETTLEMENT OF

PALESTINIANS AND CALLS FOR A PERMANENT SOLUTION

Malaysia strongly opposes any proposal that could lead to the forced displacement or movement of Palestinians from their homeland. Such inhumane actions constitute ethnic cleansing and are clear violations of international law and multiple UN resolutions. Any attempt, whether direct or indirect, to unilaterally and forcefully impose solutions that disregard the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination and infringes on their freedom is unacceptable, unjustifiable and will only further deepen one of the longest conflicts in the region.

Malaysia continues to stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine. The only viable path to lasting peace and stability in the Middle East is through the establishment of an independent and sovereign State of Palestine, based on the pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital. This remains Malaysia’s principled position, and it aligns with the international community’s longstanding support for the two-state solution.

The international community must unite in calling for a credible and permanent solution that is acceptable to the Palestinians. In this regard, Malaysia echoes the Resolution of the Extraordinary Arab-Islamic Summit 2024, adopted on 11 November 2024, for all nations that have yet to support the two-state solution to do so, take immediate action to recognise the state of Palestine and for it to be accepted as a full member of the United Nations. This remains the first crucial step toward ensuring lasting security and peace for the Palestinian people and the wider region.

Malaysia reaffirms its support for all diplomatic and multilateral efforts, including those being undertaken by the Global Alliance and The Hague Group, in pursuing lasting peace through the establishment of an independent and sovereign State of Palestine.
