Majed bin Mohammed Al Ansari stressed the necessity for the international community to shoulder its responsibility towards the crisis in the Gaza Strip, especially after the UN Security Council UNSC resolution calling for immediate ceasefire.
During the Ministry's weekly media briefing yesterday, Dr. Al Ansari welcomed the resolution and any UN, regional or international diplomatic initiative that puts an end to the horrific conflict and helps in the negotiating process.
He expressed hope that resolution would expedite ending the conflict, be useful on the diplomatic front, and have a positive impact on the negotiations.
He underlined the importance of the partners interacting with the resolution, relying primarily on negotiations, especially since it represents a positive pressure tool to reach an agreement. The Qatari efforts are continuing, mediation with the partners is ongoing, and negotiations and meetings have not stopped, he added.
International diplomatic efforts are complementary to each other, and the resolution by itself confirms the position of the international community on the issue, and represents a tool for diplomatic pressure, Dr.
