MALAYSIA DEEPLY REGRETS THE SECURITY COUNCIL'S
REPEATED FAILURE TO ACT ON GAZA
Earlier today, the United Nations Security Council failed to adopt a resolution demanding an immediate and permanent ceasefire, as well as unconditional lifting of all restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza, despite the clear majority support for it. This repeated failure of the Security Council to respond to one of the most devastating human tragedies since the Second World War, as a result of the exercise of veto, is indeed regrettable and deeply disappointing.
Malaysia strongly opposes the Zionist Israeli regime's murder of civilians, their genocide and the perpetration of mass starvation and blockade of humanitarian aid as weapons of war.
Despite the failure of the Security Council, the international community must not relent in the efforts to ensure peace, security and stability in the Middle East.
The Zionist Israeli regime must realise that the only 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 position is widely shared and enunciated by the vast majority of the international community.
