New York, April 9, 2024 – Riyad Mansour, the Permanent Representative of Palestine to the United Nations, expressed his gratitude for Algeria’s unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, particularly during its recent tenure as a non-permanent member of the Security Council.
“In having Algeria as the representative of the Arab Group at the Security Council, we feel honored,” stated Mr. Mansour, reflecting on Algeria’s pivotal role in the Palestinian struggle. He recalled the historic moment in November 1988 when the declaration of independence for the State of Palestine was made in Algeria.
Mr. Mansour also highlighted a significant event from 1974 when Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat was invited to address the United Nations General Assembly by its then-President. These historical ties between Algeria and the Palestinian cause underscore the depth of solidarity between the two nations.
“Today, Algeria not only represents the Arab countries at the Security Council but also stands as a representative of the State of Palestine. In this historical context, we sincerely hope that Palestine will attain full membership in the United Nations,” concluded Mr. Mansour.
The State of Palestine, an observer at the UN since 2012, officially initiated the process to become a full member last Tuesday. This aspiration is supported by a letter sent to the Security Council, notably endorsed by representatives from Arab countries and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation.
Algeria’s steadfast support for Palestine’s quest for full UN membership reflects its longstanding commitment to justice and solidarity with oppressed peoples worldwide. As the international community continues to rally behind the Palestinian cause, Algeria’s role remains crucial in advancing the aspirations of the Palestinian people on the global stage.
