After collapse of Daesh, Palestine back as Muslim world’s top priority: Rouhani
Tehran (KNA) - Addressing the Muslim world’s parliamentarians, President Hassan Rouhani says Palestine has regained its status as the most important issue facing the Islamic world after the collapse of the Daesh terror group in Iraq and Syria.
Rouhani said the current instability and insecurity gripping the region stem from continued Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories, Washington's "tendentious and unstinting" support for the Tel Aviv regime and the Palestinian nation's failure to exercise its "basic right" to establish a sovereign state with Jerusalem al-Quds as its capital.
He made the comments in a speech to the 13th Session of the Parliamentary Union of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), which opened in Tehran earlier in the day.With the defeat of the Takfiri Daesh terror group, Rouhani added, Palestine had regained its status as the "first priority on the Islamic Ummah's political agenda."
