BAGHDAD, Jan 30 (NNN-NINA) – Iraq confirmed its solidarity with the Palestinians, in achieving their legitimate rights, a day after the announcement of the U.S. peace plan, or Deal of the Century.
“Iraq stands with its Palestinian brothers, in their legitimate rights, guaranteed by international legitimacy, the UN Security Council resolutions, and their right to return to their homes and lands,” the Iraqi Foreign Ministry said, in a statement.
The ministry also voiced Iraqi support for the Palestinians, in establishing their independent state with Jerusalem as its capital, while demanding the return of all occupied lands by Israel to Syria and Lebanon, according to the statement.
Trump also reiterated his administration’s recognition of the Syrian Golan Heights as Israel’s territory, a recognition that has been repeatedly condemned by the Syrian government.
