Foreign Ministry condemns racist statements by Dutch parliamentarian, demands government reject them

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates today strongly condemned the racist inflammatory statements made by Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders in which he denied the rights of the Palestinian people, especially their right to establish their independent state on their lands with East Jerusalem as its capital, calling for the displacement of the Palestinian people, and proposing to solve the Palestinian issue at the expense of Jordan. In a statement, the Ministry considered these statements 'a call to escalate the aggression against our people and a blatant interference in their affairs and future.' It called on the Dutch government to condemn and reject these statements in accordance with international law and United United Nations resolutions.
