The permanent representative of Algeria to the UN, Amar Bendjama, recently expressed his regret at the latest failure of the Security Council to respond to the calls and aspirations of the people. He emphasized that Algeria will persist until the Security Council fully assumes its responsibilities and calls for a ceasefire.
Following the veto by the United States of a resolution presented by Algeria, Bendjama thanked the members for their constructive participation and expressed gratitude to those who voted in favor of the resolution. Despite this failure, he stressed the importance of continuing to work for peace in Gaza.
The resolution rejected by the Security Council conveyed a crucial message of support for the Palestinians. Bendjama insisted on the Council’s failure to respond to the aspirations of the people, emphasizing the need to assume its responsibilities.
In the current context, it is imperative to stop the aggression in Gaza and facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid. Bendjama emphasized that previous resolutions had not brought the expected results and that a ceasefire was crucial to meet the needs of the Palestinians.
Call to action from the international community
The Ambassador of Algeria to the UN issued a pressing call to the international community to demand an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. He warned that inaction would lead to more violence and instability in the region and in the world.
Bendjama recalled the importance of the Security Council as a guarantor of international legality, while expressing his disappointment with its recent failures. He emphasized Algeria’s willingness to continue advocating for a ceasefire and for an end to injustice in Palestine.
In conclusion, Algeria remains determined to continue its efforts on behalf of the Arab-Muslim nation and the free men of the world. Algeria’s will is firm and its determination unwavering until the Security Council acts to end the bloodshed in Palestine.
