The State of Qatar has affirmed that the exploitation of natural resources in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and the Occupied Syrian Golan, as well as the hindrance of the population's access to these resources, obstruct sustainable development and the economic and social rights of the occupied populations. This assertion was made by Mohammed Hassan Al-Emadi, Third Secretary at the Permanent Mission of Qatar to the United Nations, during a statement at the Second Committee of the United Nations General Assembly's 81st session.
Al-Emadi emphasized the importance of consolidating a ceasefire in Gaza, securing humanitarian aid access, and restoring essential services to enable the Palestinian people's economic and social recovery and sustainable development. The country also reaffirmed its support for the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, including their right to self-determination and the establishment of an independent state on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
