Riyad Mansour has delivered a passionate appeal to the Security Council, calling on member states to support the draft ceasefire resolution.
“Are we supposed to pretend we don’t know the objective [of Israel] is the ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip, the dispossession of and forcible displacement of the Palestinian people when so many Israeli representatives could not refrain from admitting it?” he asked.
“If you are against the destruction and displacement of the Palestinian people, you have to be in favour of an immediate ceasefire,” he said.
“Enough is enough. They are playing games with and they’re taking you for a ride, and you need to wake up and see reality as is,” Mansour added.
“Everything we built as humanity after the Second World War was to prevent these horrors,” he said. “Now, they are taking place in Gaza against the Palestinian people.”
