Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has stressed the need to break the “vicious cycle of violence” that generations of Palestinians have suffered from and called for an end to the “ injustice ”.
“It is both unacceptable to justify – let alone encourage – terror attacks, and to respond to them via methods of collective punishment in gross violation of international humanitarian law,” the minister said in an interview for Russian state news agency TASS.
“It is necessary to cut the vicious cycle of violence, to remove the injustice that several generations of Palestinians have been suffering from,” he said. “This is the only way to achieve stabilisation in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict area and in the entire Middle Eastern region in general.”
