New York : The United Nations General Assembly has again demanded Israel to withdraw from the occupied Syrian Golan to the June 4, 1967 line in implementation of the UN Security Council relevant resolutions, stressing that Israeli law on the annexation of the Syrian Golan is null and void.
The General Assembly, in a resolution titled “the Syrian Golan” Wednesday, reiterated the main principle of banning the acquisition of lands by force in line with international law and the UN Charter as well as the application of the Geneva Pact on the protection of civilians at time of war on the occupied Syrian Golan.
The resolution also demanded Israel to annul its decision on imposing its laws, legislation and administration on the occupied Syrian Golan, stressing that this decision is null and void and has no legal legitimacy at all as confirmed by the UN General Assembly resolution No. 497 for 1981.
The resolution stressed that Israeli building of settlements and other activities in the Golan are illegal.
It added that the continuation of the Israeli occupation of the Golan and its de facto annexation block the establishment of a just and comprehensive peace in the Middle East.
It also expressed satisfaction over the convening of the Madrid Peace Conference in 1991 on the basis of the UN Security Council resolutions 242, 338, 425 and the land-for-peace formula.
