The Need for International Action
Oman is urging the international community to take a firm stand against the violence and military escalation in the region. The sultanate underscored the necessity of adhering to international and humanitarian laws. It specifically called for the “cessation of all forms of military support that fuel the conflict and prolong human suffering.”
The ongoing violence in Gaza has drawn widespread condemnation, and Oman’s stance reflects a broader call for a unified response from nations worldwide. The sultanate believes that without decisive action, the cycle of violence will continue, leading to further devastation and suffering.
A Call for Dialogue and Peace
In addition to advocating for an end to arms supplies, Oman is urging all parties involved to engage in constructive dialogue. The sultanate emphasizes the need for a just and comprehensive political solution that guarantees the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people. Central to this solution is the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.
By calling for dialogue, Oman highlights the importance of diplomatic efforts in resolving the conflict. Sustainable peace can only be achieved through negotiations that address the core issues affecting the region.
