Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh urged today the International Union of Socialist Youth (IUSY) to press the Israeli occupation authorities to abide by the signed agreements and allow the Palestinian elections to be held in all of the Palestinian territories, including in Jerusalem. The call was made as Shtayyeh received an IUSY delegation at his office in Ramallah, where he briefed them of the latest political developments in Palestine, including the ongoing Israeli violations against the Palestinian people. 'Israel is waging wars against our geography, demography, money and narrative,' Shtayyeh told the delegation. 'Through its occupation, Israel aims to control all aspects of life in Palestine, especially through murder and daily arrest campaigns, seizure of lands in favor of settlement expansion, controlling and stealing most of our water resources, and placing restrictions on the freedom of movement of individuals. and merchandise.' The Prime Minister stressed the importance of reviving the Arab Peace Initiative to end the occupation and establish a Palestinian state on the pre-1967 borders, with Jerusalem as its capital.
