Kuwait: Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council Jasem Al-Budaiwi has expressed support for the resolution adopted by the 113th International Labor Conference, which recognizes Palestine as a non-member observer state in the International Labor Organization (ILO). Al-Budaiwi stated that this decision aligns with the international community’s stance on the matter.
According to Kuwait News Agency, Al-Budaiwi emphasized the importance of the UN General Assembly’s resolution from May 10, 2024, which asserts that the State of Palestine is eligible for membership in the United Nations as per Article 4 of the UN Charter. He highlighted that the ILO’s recent resolution could improve Palestine’s prospects for gaining full membership in the UN and its specialized agencies.
Al-Budaiwi reiterated the Gulf Cooperation Council’s unwavering support for the Palestinian people’s right to establish an independent state within the pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
