"On 23 September, we witnessed the official request for the recognition of Palestine being submitted to the United Nations General Assembly, despite the United States’ veto, the protests by Israel and the prevarication of Europe’s leaders. Faced with this confusion, I decided to vote in favour of this resolution, which recognises the legitimacy of Palestine’s request to be recognised as a state in its own right. At the same time, the resolution reaffirms the right of Israel to exist within safe borders and calls for a cessation of rocket attacks. Furthermore, even though the negotiations between the Palestinians and the Israelis have been at a standstill for several months following the resumption of the illegal settlement building by the State of Israel, we call for direct negotiations between the two sides to be resumed without delay, because the conflict will not be resolved without a negotiated solution."@en1
