Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was present as the conference got underway in Istanbul on Friday. A statement issued by the Senate said that hundreds of legislators and politicians from around the world, as well as heads of Senates, Senate Councils, and legislative as sociations. He clarified that the United States and the West as a whole have commercial and economic ties to Arab and Islamic nations, and that in order to stop Israeli aggression and encourage the world community to recognize Palestine as a free and independent state, these ties must be exploited. "His Majesty King Abdullah II places the Palestinian issue at the top of his priorities today," he continued. Since the vicious Israeli assault on October 7, His Majesty has worked to put an end to this flagrant aggression on a number of regional and global platforms." The three-day conference will cover relevant UN resolutions and specialized working papers on the Palestinian issue. These resolutions demand that Israel withdraw from the occupied Palestinian territories, allow Palestinian refugees to return home, and provide compensation.
