Palestinian ambassador to the UN: ‘A map erasing Palestine, sparking no outrage’

“This is the map erasing the nation of Palestine and the Palestinian people.. what outrage did it spark? None.” The Palestinian UN ambassador, Riyad Mansour, criticised on Wednesday the outrage over the “from the river to the sea” slogan by highlighting the comparative lack of outrage over a map Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented at the UN earlier this year that erased Palestine. During the UN meeting, Mansour also called for a “definitive end” to Israel’s war in Gaza, warning that a truce to release hostages “cannot be just a pause before the massacre starts all over again.” Subscribe to our channel: Subscribe to MEE Telegram channel to stay up to date: Middle East Eye Website: Follow us on TikTok: @middleeasteye Follow us on Instagram: Like us on Facebook: Follow us on Twitter:
