Lavrov on the settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict: We call for an immediate cessation of hostilities. This is the difference between our resolution, which we twice proposed to the UN Security Council, and the American one, which does not talk about any cessation of hostilities, but only condemns Hamas - and “therefore Israel has the full right to self-defense by any means.” It is clear that this approach is also disastrous, because if Gaza is destroyed, if 2 million inhabitants are expelled from it, as some politicians in Israel and abroad are throwing forward, this will create a catastrophe for many, many decades, if not centuries. So, of course, you need to stop. And it is necessary to announce humanitarian programs to save the population that is under blockade: no water, no electricity, no food, no heat, there is none of this. Our draft resolution, which we, together with China and the Arab countries, promoted in the UN Security Council, was aimed exactly at achieving these goals, but the Americans vetoed it, thereby confirming that their task was to fully support Israel in any of its actions.
