Muscat: The Sultanate of Oman has welcomed the announcements by the United Kingdom (UK), Canada and Australia in recognizing the State of Palestine.
Oman considers this step a very important development in the context of international efforts aimed at achieving a two-state solution and establishing the foundations of security and peace in the region.
In a statement issued today by the Foreign Ministry, Oman reiterated its call to other members of the international community that have not yet recognized the State of Palestine to take similar steps. This, the statement said, would guarantee the Palestinian people their legitimate right to establish their independent state on the 4 June 1967 borders, with Al Quds Al Sharqiya (East Jerusalem) as its capital.
